It looks like with chg-zd-mtx, amanda always grabs the first tape it sees fit, instead of taking the "expected" tape.
I don't see this with my changer. Whenever amanda expects a particular tape, she'll scan the whole changer, and only then take the first acceptable one that she found.
Which means that if she expects, in your case, DailySet1-013 which is not in the changer, she'll start with the current slot, then scan the whole changer, only to finally use the tape she started out with.
Another case is when you just labeled a few tapes. The current slot at the end of a mass labeling session, is probably the last one; amanda has no preference whatsoever among those several `new' tapes, so she'd take that one. If you want her to take the first one instead, do an
amtape <conf> slot first
after labeling.
