Perhaps you could have an mpv instance watching a playlist file in the background though. Like I got pretty far by first just launching an mpv instance with mpv --idle=yes --input-ipc-server=/tmp/mpvsocket, and then I could get that instance to play from a playlist stored in /tmp by sending commands to the socket with echo '{ "command": ["loadlist", "/tmp/your_playlist"] }' | socat - /tmp/mpvsocket. This all a bit advanced perhaps, but if you're interested. also take a look at https://github.com/lwilletts/mpvc
As u/rien333 has mentioned, this is because commands are asynchronous, so there is no concept of a command being "finished" in qutebrowser. Thus, your second command will run immediately, while the first is still running.
