Heaviside not pattern matching

Question:Heaviside not pattern matching

Hi,

I am having trouble getting a pattern match to the Heaviside function.

patmatch(Heaviside(x), Heaviside(a::algebraic))

returns "false" whereas I would expect it to return true.

On the other hand:

patmatch(Heaviside(x), Heaviside(x::algebraic))

returns true.

What am I missing?

Regards.
