Bug Title: Voice Processing Continues in Background After Pressing Home Button on Samsung Devices

Summary:
When the ChatGPT app is sent to the background by pressing the home button on a Samsung device, the voice processing continues to listen and respond, using up daily voice limits without user input or awareness. The issue occurs when the app should ideally stop all listening activities once sent to the background.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Open the ChatGPT Android app and start a voice session.

  2. Press the home button on a Samsung device to send the app to the background.

  3. Leave the device idle for 20-30 minutes.

  4. Return to the app and notice that it has been continuously processing voice input in the background, even when there was no interaction from the user.

Expected Behavior:
Once the home button is pressed and the app is sent to the background, voice listening should stop, and no further input or response should be processed until the user actively reopens the app.

Actual Behavior:
Voice processing continues in the background, with the app still listening and responding, resulting in unintended voice interactions and depletion of the daily voice limit.

Device Information:

Device: Samsung Galaxy (insert model)

OS Version: (insert Android version, e.g., Android 12)

App Version: (insert version, if known)

Additional Context:
The issue seems specific to pressing the home button on Samsung devices. Other closing methods, such as using the back button or manually closing the app, do not trigger this bug. This continuous background listening results in unintended voice responses even when the user is not actively using the app.

Impact:

The app consumes daily voice limits without user interaction.

It can cause confusion for users unaware that the app is still actively processing inputs in the background.

Potential security/privacy concerns if the app continues listening unintentionally.

Suggested Fix:
Ensure proper handling of app lifecycle states, particularly when transitioning to the background. Voice processing and microphone access should cease immediately upon pressing the home button or sending the app to the background.
