Do you have allowed  substitutes?

$ guix time-machine --commit=2367469 -- build telegram-desktop -n -d
The following derivation would be built:
  /gnu/store/aqhqhza58lzkvzxrspzbf8v9ssqvkxri-telegram-desktop-2.9.3.drv

$ guix time-machine --commit=2367469 -- build telegram-desktop -n -d --no-grafts
/gnu/store/gz50dz1rfaik7s33d22r2lmyzwd7f7bm-telegram-desktop-2.9.3.drv

However, as you noticed, the ungrafted version seems substituable and
not the grafted one.

I agree it is confusing that “guix weather” reports an avaibility when
it is not the case for “guix build”.  Maybe, it can be considered as a
bug.


Cheers,
simon
