Actually, it seems that what he's saying is that the Duriel and Andariel quests check if the quest is in the state of "killed boss, didn't speak with NPCs yet." If it is in that state, you get the non-quest drop. If, however, you do talk with the NPCs, it'll change away from that status and reset the drop to the quest one. So it's the opposite of what you suggest; not talking with NPCs will let you keep the non-quest drop, but if you don't take this precaution, you'll get the quest drop again.
