It could be something like the earlier transaction log backup having a password, while the later ones do not, and the restore command now does not provide a password. Or a situation where SQL Backup failed to fill in the backup details for that earlier backup, causing SQL Backup not to be able to identify that backup set correctly.
If you cannot find the required file, then it could be that the SQL Backup service on the backup server failed to copy the file over (if you were using the COPYTO option), or a transaction log backup was made outside of SQL Backup, in which case you'll need to track down that file using details from the msdb..backupset and msdb..backupmediafamily tables on the backup instance.
