Windows 11 Do Not Distrub constantly turns itself on

I have turned it off in Windows setting multiple times but it keeps turning back on. I do not want it on and I have never wanted it on. I did not know it was even a possibility to turn it on until it started doing it on its own.

How do I turn it off and leave it turned off for good?

    I had the DND issue start happening today and traced it in my case as being caused by the NVIDIA overlay. So for me it's either disable the NVIDIA overlay or toggle off "When using an app in full-screen mode..."

    Which is ridiculous. They need to just remove this "feature" if they cannot implement it in a functional manner

    Considering that the overlay is a full screen app, they'd need to exclude the process when it triggers DND, which isn't quite as simple as checking the file name. Sure it can be done though.
