I'm really new to Lilypond. I
think it's an interesting project, so I started reading the first two chapters of the Learning Manual on lilypond.org. But since I play the drums, I wanted to see how the program worked with drums scores. Thus, as my first test with Lilypond, I created the .ly file in attachment.
As you can also see from the .pdf file, there's a problem. When
there are, in this case, two rests on different voices, which should be the one at the top and the other at the bottom, they overlap.
I use Lilypond 2.14.2 on Linux, and this is the output when I try to compile the .ly file:

Is there a kind of solution to this issue, or is it normal?
