firstly try the latest version of the plugin (2.0.1) because it handles the
various dependency scopes better

secondly if you're using a transitive Embed-Dependency then you should just
need to use bundle:bundle

the bundleall goal is a specialized goal that attempts to wrap each
dependency up as a bundle using
heuristics (export all content, etc.) and doesn't perform any embedding,
etc. - with bundleall you'll get
a lot of small bundles, whereas with a transitive Embed-Dependency you
should get one big bundle.
