Bug description

When recording a voice memo, and an alarm or timer starts ringing, or someone is calling, the memo keeps recording also after dismissing the interrupting event. When trying to send the recording memo after dismissing the event, the memo disappears/is deleted. When pressing 'send' while the alarm/timer/incoming call is still ringing, the memo is sent correctly. I have only tested it against alarms, timers and incoming cellular calls, not against calls from messengers, facetime or other apps.

Steps to reproduce

• Set a timer for 30 seconds.
• Start recording a voice memo and lock the recording (or don't lock it, both possible).
• Wait until the timer rings.
• Dismiss the timer.
• Try to send your voice recording.

Actual result: Recorded voice message is deleted.

Expected result: Recorded voice message is sent to the chat.

Same thing here with interruption by incoming call. Very frustrating when the voice recording has been going on for a while.

Steps to reproduce

• Start recording a voice memo and lock the recording
• Get a call (in my case from the person I was recording for, but it might not matter)
• Set aside the call
• Check that the recording is still going on
• Send your voice recording

Expected result

• Recorded voice message is sent to the chat.

Actual result

• Recorded voice message is deleted.
