'Media Type' is one of the gotchas of bacula. You think you should be
describing the type of media you're saving to, but in fact the Media Type for
each storage definition should be unique.
From the docs:

Ahh, I think you pushed me in the right direction. I think the problem
is the "Spool Size".
My spool
What is a File tape?
Best regards,

PS: Please note that Console connections are treated internally
by Bacula as a job, and there are something like 6 or 7 different
places where concurrent jobs can be set.

All of the information is stored in the DB very granularly, there's no need
to go to volume size to determine storage use. I'll gladly help you more off
list if you need assistance collecting it, I've written a billing
application using the same data.

I run into a similar problem and here's what I did.
1) Make sure your autochanger entry has all the drives list in the Device line.
Device = Drive-1, Drive-2, ...
2) In the Storage entry in bacula-dir.conf. Make sure you have a Maximum
Concurrent Jobs entry, 20 seems like a good number.
