["Game" Options do not save]

Found a bug in the Game Options menu; I could not find any post that reports this as known bug:

 

[DESCRIPTION]

 

Under "Game" options below the difficulty setting; after selecting in-game preferences, "Death", "Combat Tooltips", etc...and selecting "yes" to save, the selected options are resetting to default upon loading or continuing a game. 

 

[DETAILS]

 

I have tried this multiple times with 3 different character saves, and each time the above-mentioned setting keep resetting upon load.  I have tried it with expert mode, whereas I select subsequent setting to fine tune and they are initially saved for the current state, but after loading the settings are reset to default for a particular option.

 

[EXPECTED BEHAVIOR]

 

After saving selected "Game" setting the preferences should save indefinitely until changed by the user.

 

[More community melding - IRC]

Is the IRC channel still actively used at this time?  I went in there today and only saw like 3 other people that were being very silent.
