Did the latest patch or hotfix change how lockpicks work?

I know that trap disarming kits get used up every time you disarm, but lockpicks always remained as long as you were successful. I went to pick a lock last night and got the message that I had no lockpick kits left. That's impossible as I rarely fail those and had quite a bit of them.

Just tested this on my end and cannot confirm. Opened a lock with 10 thieves' tools in my inventory and still had 10 after successfully picking the lock. Also, trap disarming kits shoud also remain if the disarming is successful. At least based on the description of the trap disarming tool in the inventory.

But did you actually check your inventory? Maybe they were on a character that you weren't actively using in your party. Also, I'm not sure that disarm traps are used up every time you use one. I would've run out a long time ago on my current playthrough. I think the difference with lockpicking is that with lockpicking you can just try again without interruption but when you fail to disarm a trap, the kit is ruined and you set off the trap.
