^Hopefully someone will come through with a solution to this extremely annoying problem, but I believe the answer is 'Nope.'

Interesting. I do only get the warning when using the headphone jack, not with bluetooth headphones/soundbars.

Are your rebooting your phone on a constant basis? Most Samsungs with that behavior only do it after a restart...

The only thing that has kept me from getting a Pixel is the lack of SD card expansion. Having access to most of my music regardless of whether I have service somewhere is something that I love.

For those with Androids (and maybe this is just a Samsung thing), but is there any way to suppress those "listening to music too loud will hurt your widdle ears" warnings when I try turning the volume up past a certain level? Yeah it's just a quick tap to dismiss but having to do it all the time is a pain, perhaps there's an easy way to turn it off but I haven't figured it out.

I guess I could understand if there's something connected to the headphone jack, but most of the time I'm using Bluetooth over my car or over the stereo. It'd be nice if there were a "don't ask me about this again" option.
