My current workaround is to add a lengthy pause after updating the metadata, but the amount of time the pause varies on the metadata and number of books selected.

To confirm this, I placed a dialog box in the step immediately after updating metadata, and you can see it appears on top of the "applying metadata" box.

I have a copy of the calibre temp folder that was generated during the action chain, and can provide that privately. I also have a video screen recording.
In the action settings, make sure to tick the box "Wait for the metadata download jobs to finish"
