Don't know anything about the relevant actuator, but unless the actuator has a brake or an effective (electrical) detent, very interesting things can happen with vibration.
Which therefore suggests that the relevant actuator must have an effective brake/detent, given that any screw can be revers driven in appropriate circumstances.
