It looked like you have a 9sp setup there. Can't quite be sure from the image. Couple things to check - I think I see a metal ferrule where the end of the cable goes into the derailleur. Sometimes those don't fit all the way down into the cable adjuster. I usually end up with the composite ones there. I swapped derailleur pulleys when I moved over to the CX setup, and haven't had a ghost shift since then (It was not ever a big problem for me, but it would happen every once in a great while). Using the floating pulley with a cassette system can cause slight chain wandering with a friction system. If you are slightly off on your trim, it can force-shift itself, which is what the index systems are really designed to do. Maybe a link less in the chain? (Can't quite see what that will do in Large/Large if you run that combo, though...) Is the der. loop housing a touch long? That's one place where I tend to use the factory cut (Shimano) bit.
