Try
\override RhythmicStaff.MultiMeasureRest #'staff-position = #0.01
There's a nasty hack in ly:multi-measure-rest::print which changes the
position of single full-bar rests if staff-position = #0 to ensure the
default position is effectively staff-position = #2; setting it very
slightly off tricks the code so it doesn't perform the shift.

That's because it uses a different print function (ly:rest::print).
