Looks to me like your schedule window is running out before the backup
can start. Open the
window. You only have a 1 hour window for some of these schedules.
Increase it by an hour or two and
see if it works.

We had a similar problem until we went to polling. Polling will
randomize, prompted will not. We also increased our
windows significantly.
