The uuid= I believe requires a link that udev creates when the device
gets created and it scans it.  That link may or may not be done when
mdadm returns with 0 as that udev/link creating is not in the mdadm
code path.

So wait a second before you mount it.  In reality it will probably
happen much faster than 1sec.

I think the specific udev rule doing it is in
/lib/udev/rules.d/60-persistent-storage.rules and this happens after
udev processes the event when the device shows up.

the link will be in /dev/disk/by-uuid/ so if once the mdadm exists do
a ls -l against that dir and then sleep a second and do it again
something new will show up.
