Okay, I have been playing with the Saved Search Editor using the Load Search button to load Find and Replace and to try to use the Search Editor Find, Replace, and Replace/Find and Replace All buttons directly.

I think I can recreate what you are seeing. I think without using ReplaceAll the first group search child term is searched for and when the search cursor reaches the end it is never reset for the second group search child. The reset only happens if a replacement is made.

So I think this is a bug actually. It just never hits for ReplaceAll, it only hits when no replacement is done.

I will look into fixing this for the next release.
