This issue does occur for me regularly and I can give some details on how it works in my case:
My "workaround" at the moment is to first record a "dummy" message, which due to the bug is not saved anyway, and afterwards recording the real message.
iPhone 15 Pro Max iOS 17.4.1 Signal 7.4.0.9

Bug description
This has happened for ~10-30% of my attempts of send a voice message In the last ~4 weeks: I'd start recording a voice message, lock the recording so I don't have to keep pressing the 'record' button. At the end when I hit the blue arrow to send the message, the record gets removed and I'm presented with 'Press and hold to record.' as if I had just tapped the microphone button.
I didn't find anything in the currently open issues, but I've found the same issue reported 3 years ago on Reddit - https://www.reddit.com/r/signal/comments/n5n8ju/ios_voice_message_recording_fails_sometimes_when/ I'm not sure if the notification part applies over here, but other than that the issue seems to be the same.
Things I noticed:
I think overall I've lost ~20 minutes of audio across 20-40 recordings in the last couple of weeks. If you know there's a chance your message might be lost, you're probably not gonna send it...

Link to debug log
The last time this issue occurred was today (2024-01-17 at ~ 18:50 my local time). When browsing through the debug logs I've found an event at
2024/01/17 18:50:19:099
that could be it, though not sure. I followed it up with successfully sending three short (4 seconds, 1 second, 32 seconds) messages, if that helps. Here's the link to the debug log: https://debuglogs.org/ios/6.54.0/02d4a3be1297250524c5205559e00b8c183e5822ac28ea01fc94dda5b2f5c0cb.zip
