Very good point,
I think that may be true as Sauron knows that there are people with the strength of will to weald it (namely Aragorn) and after the battle at Pelenor Gandalf make the little speech about it in Aragorn's tent. So He is almost convinced that Pippin had the ring, I think this is what he thought;

"Well, that Halfling had the ring. That dunadain must have got it off him as he has
Will enough to weald it. They won the battle at Pelenor dew to its power. So now they are getting in over their heads and going to try and get me at my own gates... Fools!"

I always liked that quote from the puppet version of LotR (See Middle Earth Mirth I think) where sauron says (In the palantir) "Hello, Saruman, oops wrong number." That kind of sums up what I think was going on. Also the BBC radio version shows this when Pippin reports what he has seen;
Sauron: Why have you neglected to call? Wait? You are not Saruman! Who are you?

And so on.
