Fallout 4 quests with workbench tasks

Fallout 4 quests with workbench tasks - Bearded adult mechanic in casual clothes checking tools while working with vehicle in workshop

I've got 2 quests now ("A New Threat", where you have to build a robot workbench) and "The Molecular Level", where you have to build a bunch of things and hook them together) that have the same issue in common.
When I go to a workbench and build these items, nothing happens.
The quest is not progressed in any way and when I look at the quest tasks, there's no indication that I've completed the build task.
I can build just fine....the items are placed and even in the case of the robot workbench, it functions. It just doesn't allow me to install ADA's radar beacon since I never get to "talk to ADA" and move onto the next task, since I'm stuck on the build task.
My installation is modded, however I've gone and removed any mods I can see that are related to companions and/or settlements....but no effect.
I've confirmed (on the NMM plugins tab) there are no load order conflicts.
And in the case of the "A New Threat" quest, I've tried the "setstage DLC01MQ02 XXXX" approach, which causes the icon above ADA's head to appear, but still no progress in the quest takes place.
In my research of this, I've been seeing folks with both modded and non-modded installs having these issues as well as console users experiencing the same issue.
Question: Does anyone have a solution for this, or is this just a plain old bug that I need to wait for 1.5 to resolve?
I'll try participating in the 1.5.151 Beta for now, just to see if that fixes it, but I just wanted to know if I should sit back and wait for Bethesda to fix this or if there are other workarounds I should try. Thanks!

How do you get Ada in robot workbench?

To unlock the Robot Workbench, you'll first need to complete the first mission of the DLC. It isn't too difficult, but keep in mind that you should be at least level 15 before you give it a go. You'll meet Ada after this quest, your new robot buddy, and you can start upgrading her, as long as you have the workbench.

Can I build the robot workbench anywhere?

Fast-travel to the settlement and gain access to the Workshop interface. Open the Special tab, Scroll down and select "Robot Workbench." Step 3: Place the Robot Workbench anywhere in the settlement. It is now functional and can be deployed to alter robots that you already have.

Do you need Ada for a new threat?

Ada tells them to install it in her so they can use it to their advantage. To do this, one needs to place Ada in a robot workbench which they must build in one of their settlements (Note: If one already has built a robot workbench, a new one must be constructed).

How many BOS missions are there in Fallout 4?

This, combined with the endless number of radiant quests and the lack of any level cap, significantly extends the potential length of playing the game. As listed below, there are 191 quests in the base game, with a total of 272 with all add-ons installed.
