Description

### Steps to reproduce

1. Open the Element app on an iPhone.
2. Open a conversation.
3. Tap the Siri microphone and dictate a message.
4. Notice that the “Send” button does not appear immediately after the text is transcribed.
5. The button only appears if Siri is manually deactivated.

### Outcome

The “Send” button should be available as soon as the text appears, without needing to wait for Siri to finish reading.

#### What happened instead?

The “Send” button does not appear immediately and requires manually deactivating Siri before it becomes available.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue on an iPhone using iOS 18.4 with Siri dictation in an Element conversation, then trace the iOS message composer’s dictation handling and Send-button state. Done means the Send button appears as soon as dictated text is transcribed, without manually deactivating Siri.
