It doesn't.
It's \midi {} in \score triggering the problem.

In general better use a \score for printing and another \score for \midi

\addlyrics used to work with Voice-context only.
I think with latest devel-version other contexts are accepted, iirc.

Here a minimal example demonstrating that lyricsto can't find the
DrumVoice-context in midi:
\version "2.19.15"
\score {
<<
\new DrumVoice = "DV" \drummode { hh4 hh hh r hh }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "DV" { One Two Three Four }
>>
\midi { }
}
returns:
warning: cannot find Voice `DV'
\new Lyrics
\lyricsto "DV" { One Two Three Four }
Coding \layout instead of \midi (or commenting it) will show correct
assigned lyrics, though.
%%%%
Trying to code as shown here:
https://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=4097#c10
and compiling with a build from latest master:
\version "2.19.16"
\score {
<<
\new DrumVoice = "DV" \drummode { hh4 hh hh r hh }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto DrumVoice = "DV" { One Two Three Four }
>>
\midi { }
}
returns:
GNU LilyPond 2.19.16
Processing `tiny.ly'
Parsing.../home/harm/lilypond-git/build/out/share/lilypond/current/scm/lily.scm:1041:21:
In procedure module-lookup in expression (ly:parse-file file-name):

I'm not aware of a workaround in 2.18.2, with 2.19.15 you can do:
\version "2.19.15"
\paper { ragged-right = ##f }
m =
<<
\new DrumStaff
<<
\new DrumVoice \drummode { \voiceOne hh4 hh hh r hh }
\new DrumVoice = "dv" \drummode { \voiceTwo bd4 sn bd r sn }
>>
\new Lyrics
\with {
associatedVoiceType = #'DrumVoice
associatedVoice = "dv"
}
\lyricsto "dv" { One Two Three Four }
>>
\score {
\m
\layout { }
}
\score {
\m
\midi { }
}
The need to do both:
associatedVoice = "dv"
_and_
\lyricsto "dv"
is strange, though.
HTH a bit,
