This all works fine for me, except I have
spam-mark-ham-unread-before-move-from-spam-group set to nil.

Maybe it should, but I doubt that it is.  I asked Ted to have it added
to the customize list.  I don't think it is enabled by "default".  Are
any marks enabled by default?  What happens if you actually try to set
it?

No, you shouldn't need to move them manually.  They will get moved...
