Research direction
Reproduce the locked voice-message flow on a Samsung S21 running Android 13: record for at least 2 seconds, send, and check whether the camera and voice-recording buttons disappear. Use the linked debug log and trace the Android voice-recording UI from lock through send; done means both buttons remain available immediately after sending.
