Playwright: I.waitForText() causes unexpected delay equal to `waitForTimeout` value at the end of test suite

It's a regression in 3.7.0 (also 3.7.3 is affected). It works well in 3.6.10.

Steps:

Run this test using npx codeceptjs run --verbose --colors|ts; date (it logs a current time during the test and after it)

Feature('My');

Scenario('test something',  ({ I }) => {
    I.amOnPage('https://example.com');
    I.waitForText('Example Domain');
});

Expected result:

No delay when the test finishes, you get a shell immediately

Actual result:

It waits for waitForTimeout when the test finishes, in my case 30 secs.
