I hope I'm missing something, but it did occur to me while watching some match tape and I couldn't find anything in the manual that contradicted it.
At the event I worked as field reset, the Head Ref told the field reset crew personally that a ball "scored in the wrong goal" is still a ball in play, and needs to be returned to the nearest human player (in that situation, the one that is "inbounding" - has access to the pedestal).

Another event I spectated at, this was also the procedure followed.
