I can confirm that, in some cases renaming files with ( and ) characters can help to make mtp usable, but... this is not whole story. I have a lot files with parenthesis (or other special characters) in their name. The file operations were hanging only when I tried to do something in a directory which contained photos (.jpg files) - primarily in DCIM/Camera and in a directory where I've copied these photos. There are many files in my mp3 collection with ( ) characters in their name, including some jpegs (album covers) and these directories are usable via mtp.
