it sees that permissions are ok:
developer@w3:/dev$ ls -lh sg*
crw-rw---- 1 root cdrom 21, 0 Mar 13 16:20 sg0
crw------- 1 root root  21, 1 Mar 13 16:20 sg1
crw-rw---- 1 root disk  21, 2 Mar 13 16:20 sg2
crw-rw---- 1 root tape  21, 3 Mar 18 10:25 sg3
crw-rw---- 1 root tape  21, 4 Mar 18 10:28 sg4
crw-rw---- 1 root tape  21, 5 Mar 18 10:28 sg5
crw-rw---- 1 root tape  21, 6 Mar 18 10:28 sg6

bacula-sd is running as user bacula, group tape
