Here are a couple saves for illustration:
Not looked at saves but no never heard of this.
If you are talking a lone mortar tube unit then obviously if its out of HE it cant fire it so the only selection option is smoke if still available.
Multi tube units with 2 or in rare cases 3 tubes can still plot & fire HE if at least one has it available.
Of course you only get the rounds for that tube, unsure as normaly play with fast arty on but think you will still get the animation for the other tubes firing despite the fact they have no ammo.
