Description

On touchscreen devices, tapping to create a new message/broadcast closes the dialog immediately, so new broadcasts can't be created. @kaylen-s could not reproduce it on desktop, so it appears touchscreen-specific. May share a cause with the other broken touchscreen dialogs.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the new message/broadcast dialog on a touchscreen device, then compare the behavior with the related touchscreen dialog reports in discussion topics 878251 and 879434. Done means the dialog stays open after tapping to create a message or broadcast and a new broadcast can be created on touchscreen devices.
