The rests in measure 1 occurs while another voice is playing.  The rests 
in measure 2 occur while no voice is playing.  There will also be 
measures which have both sorts of rest occurrances.

One approach is to provide a third voice, using \oneVoice, just for 
those rests which occur while no voice is playing.  And ensure that 
those non-playing voices then use skips.

Another approach is given at
