Are you using "Maximum Volumes = " in your Pool Definition.  If you are
using a hard limit, make sure you have enough volumes.

I have a pool definition that looks like the following and it acts as
expected.

Pool
{
  Name = INCR-Pool
  Pool Type = Backup
  Recycle = yes
  Recycle Oldest Volume = yes
  AutoPrune = yes
  Volume Retention = 1 months
  Accept Any Volume = yes
  Maximum Volume Jobs = 12
  Maximum Volumes = 53
  Maximum Volume Bytes = 2147483648
  LabelFormat = "INCR-"
}
