Yes, I do and it looks OK, but I'm almost shure it didn't as I posted the
example first. Anyway, I'm switching between 2.8.5 and 2.9.14 all the time,
so this could be the reason for that. Also I do believe this example looks
good now by pure chance.

Obviously you stumbled upon a bug. I added also ties in the second voice and
after doing so, the snippet compiles. Your version of the snippet didn't
produce any (pdf-) output here on W2K/2.9.14.
On the other hand, this bug can be worked around by using phrasing-slurs
instead. Regular Slurs also won't compile like ties, if present only in one
voice.
