Same problem here. Sadly this seems to be one of bacula's limitations
in volume/device handling.

| All Volume read operations in Bacula are one job at a time.

| the volume will ever be available so it asks for operator
| intervention.
| This is not a bug.

I'm not sure if this is limited to jobs that wants to read from a
tape.
