Patch$ invalid behavior

Patch$ can trim the end of the string in unexpected way

String sText = "So what's going on? (sleeps) Okay, I was just sleeping a bit, sorry!"

MsgBox 0, sText
MsgBox 0, Patch$(sText, "(", ")", 1, "x")

I would expect the output to be:

"So what's going on? (x) Okay, I was just sleeping a bit, sorry!"

but it is this instead:

"So what's going on? (x) Okay, I was just sleeping a"
