How can I disable the unsafe volume warning?

I usually have my laptop's system volume at 80% and plugged into speakers which I can adjust, but since updating to windows 8.1 I keep noticing that every time I turn my laptop on while plugged into the speakers it automatically lowers and limits my volume to about 40% and when I try to turn it up a large banner warns me that any higher might be unsafe for my ears asking am I sure I want to do this.

It's very annoying to get this every day, and I can't seem to find a way to disable the warning permanently.

    A warning might be legally required. Putting down the volume without asking is most certainly not.  It is annoyances like this that puts customers off. 

    I have the problem on my phone; nothing can be done about it. Except, of course, use another aplliance.  Which is what i'll do.

    I had an IED explode near me in kabul and I lost my hearing a bit and I can only hear at high volumes and this **** audio device turns my volume down every 10 minutes on realtek and I cant hear anything, thats too low. they dont think about people like us who just want to listen to our jams and im sick of taping headphones to my hearing aid its so **** annoying.

    It's still not working! I forbid Windows from automatically installing hardware drivers and also used the local policy editor trick, but it just seems to keep reinstalling. I really really really really really reaaaaaally hate the new Windows Update system.
