If the command was issued before the mount command, which in turn triggers the Autochanger change script, that would not be a problem. Either there would be no change to the slots, or the newly inserted tapes would be identified as being on the changer.
When bacula can't find a tape in the changer (slot=0) with sends an email (once an hour?) requesting manual intervention. I was hopping it could be done via a script called before the email bacula sends this email.
I believe it was just a matter of trying a last resort update before requesting manual assistance.
I thought of the crontab solution as well, but I'm afraid it can cause some unexpected disruption. But I might try it if can't find a cleaner way of doing it.

How would bacula know you changed the tape in the archive unless you
told it to update slots? I guess you can run a job that issues an
update slots every 5 minutes but that would be wasteful and could get
you into trouble if the autochanger was initializing.
