Bug description

Sharing text to Signal works as expected.
But when sharing files to Signal while Signal is locked, it asks for authentication but instantly closes afterwards.

Steps to reproduce

• lock Signal
• share file to Signal
• authenticate

Actual result:
The app unlocks and instantly closes

Expected result:
The app unlocks and shows the chats to let me select the chats I want to share the file with
