Hi Ben,

You're absolutely right. Wow. I just tried it with the example I gave earlier w/ the two flutes. Sure enough, the pp dynamic is above     the staff for the full score but both pp are below for Flute 1 and Flute 2 separately. 

Hmmm… It should appear below the staff in all cases, no? The only "magic" should be that it only appears once in the score (but still below the staff). Please post MWE so we can double-check.

I probably confused you with my wording, sorry! I just meant it's above the staff when it's supposed to be (in rare situations where dynamics are technically different between the same instrument parts)...and then it's below for the part 'extraction' single staff file. ;) Right?
