Hello Martin,
I don't get it.
Your "markup" command is a TextScript object, which is engraved by the Text_engraver at the Voice level.
Voice context is contained within Staff context.
By using \magnifyStaff command you basically ask LilyPond to reduce the size of the objects of this Staff, which apply to the objects of the voice(s) contained in this Staff.
So my suggestion would be either to use a proper text mark (command \mark or \tempo), which are engraved at the Score level, which would then be "above" the Staff context and then not affected by the \magnifyStaff command, or to reset the size of the TextScripts within your smaller staff (which you dismiss). I would suggest the first solution.
Cheers,
