Bug Description

Steps to reproduce:
- open camera app
- record a video (or simply press on button to switch to video recording mode)
- leave camera app in background
- open contacts app
- create a new contact
- press on the + to fill the picture section
- select camera as source of the picture

Expected:
- I can take a picture (picture button enabled, record video button disabled)

Result:
- Instead, the record video button is enabled and i cannot switch to photo mode because its button is disabled.

The problem is more general than that: whenever switching away from camera-app while the app is in video mode the app will end up in an unusable state: unable to record and unable to switch away from video mode.
