Me too. The volume pop-up seems to get disabled too. Exiting the app does not fix it. Have to go into Android settings and fiddle with it to get it back.
UPDATE: Seems the latest beta (1.0.97) has fixed this, at least on my Samsung S21 Ultra.
There's a setting to disable volume key navigation for comments. It still changed the volume for me with that setting on. I'm on version 0.10.9 what version of connect are you using here?
