I got a similar issue in the past.
My schedule are setted to start at 23:05 but the jobs are actualy starts
after midnight.
I was using the option Volume Use Duration to 23 hours.
So when the backup actually starts it was on the 23 hours period yet and
he try to use the yesterday volume because it was with the append status.
I know it sounds a little tricky, but it was exactly how it happens with me.
I solve this changing the time which the backups starts a few hours ahead.
Hope it helps you out.
