I think that your usage is wrong.
You say that you chose plural edges, but plural vertices is chosen with the attached image.
It is necessary for the tool to choose at least two items.
And a result varies according to a turn to choose.
I think that it does not work definitely if you do not know how data are managed inside.

I'm sorry, translation was wrong.

It is because number of possible items is even.
and this tool requires number of branch is odd and those must be sortable by sharing faces.

So a temporary inserted face would solve the problem?

I think that you should check the below .py file if you want to know how it works.

2.77\scripts\startup\bl_operators\bmesh\find_adjacent.py
def find_next(ele_dst, ele_src)

This function picks up an items.
sorry, my bad english.

This tool works with ngons. so it must be some certain ngon topologies that confuse it.

@sindra1961, tested untitled.blend, and as far as I can see results are OK as far as I can see.
