[BUG] Cmd+D voice dictation stops working after first response (Desktop app)

Bug Description
Voice dictation via Cmd+D works on the first message of a conversation but stops responding after Claude gives its first response. The microphone is clearly connected since the initial dictation succeeds.
Steps to Reproduce
- Open Claude Code desktop app
- Press Cmd+D — voice dictation activates and works correctly
- Submit the message and wait for Claude's response
- Press Cmd+D again — nothing happens, dictation does not activate
- Clicking into the input field and retrying Cmd+D does not help
- Toggling
/voiceoff/on does not resolve it
Expected Behavior
Cmd+D should activate voice dictation on every press, not just the first message.
Environment
- Claude Code version: 2.1.37
- Platform: Desktop app (macOS)
- macOS version: 26.3.1
- Microphone: Working (confirmed by successful first dictation)
