This is the known problem/feature of octave - gnuplot (un-synchronized) interaction.
You can work around it (I do not think "fix" is a good word here) by
adding say sleep(0.1) after each command to gnuplot. Essentially you want to
avoid sending commands to gnuplot while it is still trying to finish
previous job...
