Same here with version 1.36.2 on Debian. Kern recently told that there is a nasty bug in Linux kernels 2.6 that the storage daemon sometimes has problems with streamers. (A tape needs to be inserted when the storage daemon is started because otherwise a whole backup job fails when a new tape is requested.) This doesn't happen here with disk/file backups though. But although I have to manually unmount and mount the new tape at least the old tape gets ejected correctly. It annoys me a lot, too. I probably can't help much more but can you tell your operating system environment and Bacula version anyway?
