Multiple asynchronous shell commands in Emacs-Dired?

Emacs can obviously handle several asynchronous subprocesses, otherwise a multilingual programming environment such as org-babel would not be possible to give an example.

However, when I am in Dired and run the asynchronous shell command to view the pdf file (& evince), and then try to do the same in the second pdf file, I get the following message:

"The team is running - kill her? Yes or No?"

Is there a way to run multiple asynchronous shell commands in parallel when in Dired?
