How about making the flag narrower?
\once \override Flag.stencil =
#(lambda (grob) (ly:stencil-scale (ly:flag::print grob) 0.6 0.8))

Try whiteout:
\once \override Flag.whiteout = 3
\once \override Flag.layer = -1
in the voice containing the a,
\once \override Flag.layer = -2
in the other one. Maybe try different values for whiteout and different
stem lengths. But I haven’t found a satisfying solution so maybe scaling
the flag, changing horizontal spacing (force-hshift) and different stem
lengths will give a good solution.
