A solution for above "problem" is to set a proper permissions on /backups
filesystem, i.e. chown bacula /backups. You have configured an automatic
volume labeling, so Bacula has to have a directory write permissions to
work properly.
Another possible problem is zero sized volume: Vol-Full-sourcehost-0028.
When Bacula write a label (create a disk volume) then first a few hundred
bytes is allocated for label itself. This means that even an empty volume
is a few hundred bytes in size, no zero. Above volume is unusable for
Bacula and should be deleted or relabeled.

If you have lost any previous full backups then any following differential
or incremental backups will be unusable. The proper solution is to check a
catalog media list against available volumes. If you find any differences
then you have to delete a bad volume from catalog and from filesystem. It
will clean all you problems with this issue.

If you want a very fresh start that you have to delete all volumes from
catalog (delete volume=<volname>) and from filesytem (rm
/backups/<volname>).
I am very new to bacula, so please excuse me if the question fairly simple.

No problem, if you have any questions, just ask.
