If defblksize 0 works, please use it.  Be sure you are running as root, then 
do "mt -f /dev/ht0 status"  It should show a block size of 0.

Did you try?  /dev/MAKEDEV ht

Do you know why your device is called /dev/ht0?  

Normally on Linux systems tapes should be called /dev/st0  and /dev/nst0.   

Could you try:

   mt -f /dev/st0 status
