Another thought though.  If I deleted the volume could I use scanner to
re-add it without changing the device type?  Don't know if I want to do
that since there are more clients on the tape than the one I'm
interested it but it would be good to know.

Yes, you can.  I've done that too, and I know it works.

I ran a jukebox with four SuperDLT drives in it, but one of them was
defined as a tz89 (DEC DLT7000) for a while, to help us migrate off our
legacy volumes to SuperDLT.  That was a few years ago, but I ran into
the kinds of problems you're seeing, before I set up one of the drives
as type tz89.
