This doesn't look at all like a bug, so don't bother to report it at least not 
with the current information as I will simply close the bug immediately.

As far as I can tell, you either have a configuration problem or some hardware 
problem -- possibly a timing problem with your mtx-changer script.  

If Bacula cannot open the drive and gets an I/O error as is being reported, 
99.9% the problem lies in the mtx-changer script, configuration, or 
permissions.  These must be resolved and shown to work properly prior to 
submitting a bug report.
