Description Fernando Marcelino Muniz 2025-10-25 05:27:49 UTC 
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Reboot or suspend the computer while the volume is at 101% or more.

OBSERVED RESULT
The volume remains over 100%

EXPECTED RESULT
The widget should take its own warning message into its design, and automatically deactivate it when the user is highly inactive, or their session is interrupted (rebooting and suspending), due to the chances of users forgetting they enabled that toggle.

Yeah, personally I agree with you, and in fact this was discussed while I was implementing the feature. It was originally my preference too, but ultimately judged to be too disruptive. So I don't think we can do this, sorry.
