Description
### Steps to reproduce
### Steps to reproduce
**How to Replicate**
1. Have TOR daemon running.
2. run:
a. `nohup sh -c 'element-desktop --proxy-server=socks5://127.0.0.1:9050 --profile DebugProfile' > ~/nohup-DebugProfile.out &`
3. Attempt to send video to another person.
**What I expect to happen**
Video uploads
**What actually happens**
Video bar progresses quickly then error declaring that the upload has failed appears.
Network Tab shows:
Upload status: Cancelled after 30.23s
It seems quite obvious what's happening, but how do I fix it?
### Outcome
#### What did you expect?
File to upload
#### What happened instead?
File cancelled itself
### Operating system
Linux
### Application version
1.11.67
### How did you install the app?
Built from source
### Homeserver
_No response_
### Will you send logs?
No - The networking output shows clearly what element is doing and why it won't upload the video. Timeout is reached.
