Description
### Steps to reproduce
Unfortunately, no reproduction has been found yet. Will update this if something is discovered. For now, the following observations have been made:
1. There was a E2EE room inside a space.
2. A user in the room had a buggy view of the room (it appeared like an unnamed group chat with a list of people)
3. That user sent a message to the room.
4. Multiple element-web clients reported the message as unencrypted, while one user's element-android did not.
### Outcome
#### What did you expect?
All messages in an E2EE room are encrypted.
#### What happened instead?
An unencrypted message was sent to an E2EE room.
