Workaround
When running the USGS MP Metadata Translator tool, keep the geoprocessing Command Line Window open. If the tool fails you will be able to copy the last command that was run and re-execute it in the Command Line Window. After the second time you execute the command it will be successful. This avoids having to open the tool again and redefine the arguments again manually.
