From your description, it sounds like R1 was going to be out anyway (another tempting way to call it). Either way you call it, someone is going to be screwed. R1 should be out and putting him back at 1st could cost a run.
So let your partner get defecated upon and stay within an earshot to monitor the situation. There were times I knew the coach and after a minute, I just said "What do you think, Joe, shall we get on with the game now?". Then I usually turn to my partner and tell him to "shake it off, we've still got a lot of game left." making sure that the coach hears this. This let's the coach know that I still have my partner's back. I also will not allow a "shark attack" on every call that my partner makes after that.

Since BU killed the ball, R1 returns, no balk. Shizzle storm commences. Both teams say, "huh?"

Balk is immediate dead ball, so nobody can be put out after a balk call, right or wrong call.
You can calmy discuss the error with whichever coach needs it without having to eject anyone and put R1 back on 1B.
