This all looks good, the strange thing is that you definitely have a problem 
with

I have no real idea whats going on here, maybe you had the wrong changer device 
in your
config file. You could test with

/usr/local/share/bacula/mtx-changer /dev/pass1 loaded 0 /dev/nsa0.0 0

and then do thesteps below.

No I don't think so. I had to run the btape tests yesterday since I did a major
upgrade of my OS (mail is soon to follow). So now I know what I'm talking about 
;-)
The first problem you have is that, at least under FreeBSD, btape can't access 
the
tape drive without a  tape in it. I would suggest the following procedure:

        - place two blank tapes into slots 1 + 2, btape looks for them there.
        - load the first tape: mtx -f /dev/pass1 load 1 and wait for the changer
           to settle
        - run btape, it should now have no problem with the tape drive.
        - run the test command, it will test the changer as well
         - run the fill test
