it shouldn't. I've had that sort of thing crop up. The other extreme of course
is the case not grounded and acting like a nice pickup source.
The case not grounded was what I found some years ago on 3 of a batch
of 8 active speakers from a very reputable source (Quested). The cause
was black anodised metal parts not making contact - easy enough to fix,
but safety ground should have been tested even if that is the only
thing tested.
