I have seen this occur when the control file backup is in progress (or stuck
in the media manager) and a resync starts.  The resync is either explicit or
implicit. The resync will fail unable to snap the control file. I have also
seen in various releases of oracle, bugs, which causes ALL the channels do
an implicit resync, when connected to a catalog, before and after the actual
backup (especially archive log backups). Rediscovery is pretty easy in this
case: look for implicit resync messages in the rman log associated with each
channel. 

To get around that I converted the archive log backups (and all other
backups) to control file only backups (nocatalog) followed by an explicity
resync (resync catalog) to the catalog.

I place a higher priority on archive log backups (every 20 minutes) over
control file backups and consequently execute the control file backups just
a couple of times a day.

Hope this is related to your circumstance and is helpful
