This would be another problem with a 'sentient' Ring. At this point, the interests of the Ring would be in going with Gollum (who would surely put it on immediately to disappear and so reveal its whereabouts to Sauron), so surely if this was any 'evil will' of the Ring taking effect or making its presence felt then it would not have allowed Frodo to act in this way. Not unless the Ring also had a 'good' side.
