I can confirm this behavior. (I guess) it is because the opening the
second file in fact open it in the same viewer/editor instance. And that
command exit immediately after sending a message to main (first)
instance. So qvm-open-in-vm (in fact, /usr/lib/qubes/vm-file-editor)
thinks you already closed the file and remove it from the target VM.
This is very similar to more general issue we have with gnome-terminal
in DispVM - the command you use to open app/file do not wait until you
close app/file.
