I think it does have to do with subtitle speeds, since when I ran through at subtitle+voice with subtitle speed 2, it didn't do it. But at subtitle speed 9 it did it again.

I must have missed when this bug report was updated. I still can't reproduce it, though.
There are several paths through this scene, e.g. you can give Doug the pecan candy even before you start talking to him. Which one did you take? Was it speech+subtitles at maximum subtitle speed? Skipped any parts of it? Etc.

The path through the scene doesn't seem to matter and the bug occurs in both samnmax and in samnmaxa
To see the bug, give Doug the candy just when he reaches for more blue stuff to put in his mouth. It's too late if he gets his hand back into the bowl again.
Here are some gamesaves when it happens: http://www.acc.umu.se/~hyarion/samnmax.s07 http://www.acc.umu.se/~hyarion/samnmaxa.s07

Very good, then at least we aren't doing anything wrong :-)
Now we could of course try to implement a workaround for this, but that's of a lower priority.

This bugreport has been moved to Wiki to relevant Engine/TODO page. When the bug will be resolved, an appropriate message will be posted here and the bugreport link removed from Wiki
I wasn't able to reproduce this with the English talkie version. Though it could be that it only happens when something goes wrong at exactly the right time, so it might be helpful to know your subtitle and talk speed settings.
A savegame could be useful, too.
