You might need to log some time and then see if it sets it to false.

The area of the code is between line 315 and 332 of storm_quicktt.module

Seems to set the variable false and then true again for some reason .. No many comments in the code that explains why.

This is by design. The code is restoring the value in your settings every time it had to change it temporarily. So, there shouldn't be any issue I suspect.

The reason we have to do this is that while tracking time we periodically save the time used for a task and as we allow to pause a task while tracking time we have to make sure that stormtimetracking_auto_duration is set to FALSE because otherwise a possible pause wouldn't be recognized.

A posssible bug causing a problem may have been that in earlier versions we used AJAX async mode which sometimes send 2 requests at once and that left some values in a wrong state. But we have removed that a long time ago, in the dev release as of 1st June 2010.

Works as designed, so setting this to won't fix.
If there is still a problem, please report back.
