I agree that there are such cases where a guttural that originally had a
schewa takes the quality of the previous vowel rather than the schewa
taking the quality of the following vowel. However, this is why there are
signs for hataf patax, hataf segol and hataf qamats, and why they are
consistently always marked under gutturals.
