transmission-gtk spamming dmesg with messages about /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6

I'm using transmission-gtk 4.1.0-beta.2 on Devuan GNU/Linux Excalibur. My dmesg log is spammed with the following kind of message:
[Jul 4 14:47] audit: type=1400 audit(1751629628.491:75895): apparmor="ALLOWED" operation="open"
class="file" profile="transmission-gtk" name="/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6"
pid=20126 comm="transmission-gt" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0
` (originally all in one line, I broke it here for readability.) My network connection does have an IPv6 address (along with IPv4), even though I'm not intentionally making use of it. Anyway, I would like to have transmission-gtk stop trying to mess with it. Is that possible? If not, can I at least silence the repeating log message? Or get to only show up just once? --- FYI, on my system, I have:
# ls -la /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6 
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jul  4 13:59 /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6
