I've fixed it by applying a margin to everything and setting a negative width to the numbers (distance = -width):

\setupcombinedlist[chapter][
   distance=0.5cm,
   width=-0.5cm,
   margin=2cm,
   numbercommand={\simplealignedbox{\listparameter{width}}{flushright}},
]

I don't know exactly why it works, but it works :-)
