Igor, I'm responding as someone also affected by this issue. Using the command you gave in comment #25 I saw that both pulseaudio and pipewire were using the same audio device(s).

I used the command 'sudo systemctl disable --global pipewire' to disable pipewire and deleted the ~/.config/pulse/ directory. After I rebooted several times I can see that the volume is no longer set to maximum after rebooting or logging out and back in.

This workaround is documented at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pipewire/+bug/1897965/comments/23
