third or fourth voice - Lilypond treats odd voices as voice with stem and
other properties going upwards!

so in my code I handle the additional voice as \voiceFour and also name it
like that:

\version "2.14.2"
\include "english.ly"
global = {
  \key d \major
  \numericTimeSignature
  \time 4/4
  \autoBeamOff
}
rightOne = \relative c'' {
  \voiceOne
  \global
  % -- t1-87
  s4 fs8[ e8] e4. d8 |
}
rightTwo = \relative c''{
  \voiceTwo
  % -- t2-87
  s2 a8 a16 a a8 a |
}
rightFour = \relative c' {
  \voiceFour
  % -- t2-87
  <a' cs g'>4  4 d4 cs4 |
}
leftOne = \relative c' {
  % -- b1-87
  e4 a,2 e'4 |
}
leftTwo = \relative c {
  % -- b2-87
  e4 d8[ d8] a'2 |
}
pianoPart = \new PianoStaff \with {
  } <<
  \new Staff = "right"  <<
    \rightOne
    \\
    \rightTwo
    \\
    \rightFour
  >>
  \new Staff = "left" {
    \clef bass <<
      \leftOne
      \\
      \leftTwo
    >>
  }
>>
\score {
  <<
    \pianoPart
  >>
}


I would consider upgrading to the newest version!
