I am guessing this is broken by some change to the tasks package.

Replacing the definition of \correct to add \refstepcounter seems to fix the problem.

\newcommand*\correct{\refstepcounter{task}\thetask\expanded{\SetExerciseProperty{choice}{\thetask}}}

The change came from a fixed problem in tasks. According to cgnieder/tasks#24, the \refstepcounter is now required since tasks v1.4 (2022/01/08).

Thanks. Fixed for the next release.
