As far as I know you should only need one restore job.
Have you tried specifying which level to actually use when you did the
restore? Like in bconsole I think you'd add "level=incremental" to the end
of the restore command. In baculum/bacularis you would click the drop-down
box where it said "full" and change it to incremental.
