These kinds of errors are not good as I said before.  Something is going 
wrong.

It seems to me that you are writing to network mounted Volumes. Please remind 
me if this is the case.  If it is, I am not willing to spend any time on this 
unless you can reproduce it on a locally mounted Volumes.  

Bacula does a lot of seeking around (forwards and backwards) on Volumes, and 
network mounted filesystems in my experience (both Samba and NFS) do not 
properly implement standard Unix filesystem calls (Samba does opportunistic 
locking so data is inconsistent on the two sides, which is absurd IMO; and 
NFS at a minimum does not implement ftruncate; one or both are or were 
limited to 4GB addresses -- who knows what other horrors are in their code).
Doing a simple copy or a simple sequential read will surely work, but I'm not 
sure they can handle Bacula.

See below ...

Bacula believes that it has recovered from the Error.  If the SD Errors line 
does not show some count, please report it as a bug.
