My theory is that the driver for the changer keeps the inventory written
in a file somewhere specific to the changer, but since I don't have a
tape changer myself I am not familiar with that driver and don't know
where to direct you to look, off hand....

Can you post the changer and tape-drive related parameters/sections from
your amanda.conf file?  (I assume the config sections on your two
different servers are essentially the same, right?)
