See below - the dots are differently placed depending on whether the notes are in one voice or two: \version "2.15.16" \relative c' { <d a d,>4. << { d } \\ { <a d,> } >> }
According to Elaine Gould, they should be. She says that downstem voices should have the dot in the space below the notehead, so this would make the lowest dot of the chord too high. I think it's probably a matter of taste which is better, but a 2 voice chord will definitely be dotted differently from a one voice chord.
