When Is A Walk Not A Free Base ?

No.

If you are intending to take this into running lane violation territory, WMB asked for a ruling on this from his state rules interpreter (I'm going on memory, here, WMB, ...) and NFHS continues to stand by their interpretation that a BR awarded a BOB can still be called for interference on a running lane violation.
