Description

### Steps to reproduce

1. Record a voice message (of about 30 seconds for easiest testing)
2. Play the voice message
3. Try to scrub/scroll back to the beginning of the voice message
4. When you try to do this instead of getting to the beginning it will often try to reply

PS: It's related to this awesome PR by @onurays that added this feature earlier this year https://github.com/vector-im/element-android/pull/5404

### Outcome

#### What did you expect?

I would expect that when you're playing audio and have already scrubbed forward, then when you scrub backwards the app doesn't see it as an attempt to reply.

#### What happened instead?
It often opens the reply instead.
