Bug description
When censorship circumvention is enabled, if I try to start a call in a group then it start's and is hung up automatically.
If I try to create a call link then it says that it can't save the changes.
This happened to me and to several other users.

Research direction
Start by reproducing a group call and call-link creation with Circumvent Censorship enabled on Android, using the provided Signal 7.69.2 debug log as the first diagnostic source. Trace the failure from the call and call-link entry points, then verify that group calls remain connected and call links save successfully when the setting is enabled.
