Description
### Steps to reproduce
1. Turn message bubbles on in 1.8.3.
2. Have a conversation with someone.
3. Put phone away and go do other things.
4. Come back to the conversation.
### Outcome
#### What did you expect?
That the messages in my conversation would be in the same order as when I had last looked at them.
#### What happened instead?
The messages in the conversation were all out of chronological order.
#### More information
To try and troubleshoot this, I first turned off Message Bubbles and went back to the chat in question. Upon doing this, the messages were back in their correct chronological order. I then decided to turn message bubbles back on and the messages stayed in the correct order. This messages getting out of order with bubbles turned on has happened to me twice in the last two weeks while running 1.8.3.
I submitted a rageshake for this on either Saturday the 5th or Sunday the 6th.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the conversation ordering problem with Message Bubbles enabled in Element iOS 1.8.3, using the reported return-to-conversation steps. Check the available rageshake or log information and verify that messages remain in chronological order after returning to the conversation with bubbles enabled.
