Did you tested your configuration with btape? If not do it and apply all
recomendation. With btape you can test both drive and autochanger
configuration.
and the tape drive because in bconsole, I was able to add the tapes to the

Did you read above message?
It say that you should use a label command instead of add. Please folow
this recomendation. The label command will add tapes to your Bacula
configuration. Add command has a different purpose.
If your tape library support barcodes and you have a barcode labels on
your tapes then you can use a label barcodes command to successfully label
all required tapes.

This errors exists because you did not use a label command.

Consider changing a device name to persistent device name provided by udev.

As above. Consider using permanent device name provided by udev.

Console "add" command is not talking to autochanger. A "label" command do.

You can label tapes with label command, not add command.
