Nope, the ghost always took it via speech option in my games. This wasn't my cause at that time - I still haven't figured out at what point of the game the quest is triggered as solved. When I saw the XP fluttering up in the fore room, I knew it was ok - but if not... I could only place down all quest stuff outside, in the corridor - pick (not drag) them up and then re-enter this fore room. Then XP came.

I can only hope, to find the bug prob some day. It only happened to me once - could not reproduce it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/puppyeyes.gif" alt="" />
