The probable cause behind the emergence of such an error statement might be that you first tried to restore the backup data from the 1st tape, and then you tried to do the same backup data restore operation from the 2nd tape, thereafter. This issue mostly occurs when the Windows NTBackup application prompts you to mount the incorrect piece of media for restoration. This problem will never happen with the single backup set, which spans more than one media. Most often, this issue happens only when you append the backups multiple times in order that these backup sets rest on different media set members.
