AFAIK nagios passive checks ( defined usually by the users )are for services ( 
most users do not enable passive checks for hosts) - hence the host is never 
getting a status update as it is not check as a "service" per say.
you may need to set active checks on the host , and passive test for the 
host-related services , or you can change the host status manually with the use 
of the external commands.

if you are using the PING test for the host - then that should be the indicator 
for if the host is "alive" - as the check_host_alive is using ping to make that 
determination .
