I have exactly the same LT04 autoloader.
# lsscsi -g
[0:0:0:0] disk Areca ARC-1220-VOL#00 R001 /dev/sda /dev/sg0
[0:0:16:0] process Areca RAID controller R001 - /dev/sg1
[1:0:0:0] tape QUANTUM ULTRIUM 4 2210 /dev/st0 /dev/sg3

You will note that the tape (ULTRIUM 4) and autoloader (PV-124T) are on
different devices. On my machine, I address the tape at /dev/nst0, while the
autochanger is at /dev/sg4.
You can try the following stanza (assuming the correct tape and autochanger
device paths and nothing is currently loaded in slot 1):
export ADEV=/dev/sg4
export TDEV=/dev/nst0
mtx -f ${ADEV} status && mtx -f ${ADEV} load 1 && mt -f ${TDEV} status
I'm using the tape library on a SAS card and achieving about 100MB/s throughput
with hardware compression.
