I have a few more questions. (BTW, if you'd prefer to send a reproduction project instead, I'll be happy to take a look at it directly.)
Are you using an in-scene actionlist or an actionlist asset?
Have you added a Constant ID to it?
Are you sure AC is saving and restoring the running actionlist? As I dig into AC's code, it looks like it doesn't save actionlists that are currently running.
I think one of the problems may be that the Conversation State Saver component resumes the conversation from the Dialogue System side, but in this case it's not connected to the actionlist.
