You are trying to tie a note to a rest. You can only tie to a note of the same 
pitch.

This works:

\version "2.19.0"
\score {
    \new Staff {
        \partcombine
            { \time 3/8 b'8 b'4 ~ }
            { \time 3/8 es'8 es'4 ~ }
        \partcombine
            % { b'4. R1*3/8 }
            { b'4.~ b'  }
            { es'4. ~ es' } % Does not show tie
            %  { es'4. R1*3/8 } % Does show tie
    }
}
