We need to remove the Note_heads_engraver from the *Voice* and replace it 
with Completion_heads_engraver.

\new Staff { \new Voice \with{
    \remove Note_heads_engraver
    \consists Completion_heads_engraver }
  \relative c' { d4 c e fis1 g4 } }

In your example, you asked the Staff to create split notes, but the Staff 
doesn't have engravers to make the Stems or Dots.  The Voice still had
its Note_heads_engraver, so was creating notes that overlaid those created
by the Staff.
