Thanks, I tried this and it doesn't change the behavior.

Also note that if I express my chords directly using the < c b g > syntax, 
then the instrument is picked up correctly. It only happens if I use 
\chordmode as the input format.

Also, changes from ChordNames to say Staff or Voice does not change anything 
either.
