I'm backing up 20 machines over the internet using file storage with "Maximum Volume Jobs = 1" and have a recurring problem.

Whenever a job fails due to a "network error", the next job finishes without any problem, but all following jobs (within a hour or so) fails with 'Fatal error:..is busy writing on "XXX"' where XXX is the volume name which the finished job was writing on.

So the sequence of events is:
- At 22:00 each night jobs to start backing up all machines starts
- Job 1-(N-1) finishes without any problem
- Job N on client A starts and recycles volume X and starts backing up, but fails with "Fatal error: backup.c:498 Network send error to SD. ERR=Broken pipe" and "SD Bytes Written" is 0. - Job N+1 on client B starts writing on volume X and ends without any problems - Job N+2 on client C starts and recycles volume Z but fails to mount it with error 'Fatal error: acquire.c:263 Wanted Volume "Z", but device "File-1" (/var/bacula/backups/1) is busy writing on "X" .'
- All subsequent jobs fail with same error as N+2
- Next evening all scheduled jobs (or even a few hours running a manual job) manages to mount requested volume without any problem

I've seen this problem with all 1.38.x relases and I'm currently running 1.38.11
