Honestly there is no reason why a theme should affect why and how often a status message gets displayed. Those messages get triggered by the system and the theme just changes how and where it's shown on the screen.
Only reason I can think of why you saw it on Gauges and not on any other theme is the stutter that used to be in the theme. There used to be a lot of "update while firing" fields on the theme, and that would cause a brief stutter and visible screen refresh whenever you started/stopped firing.
That's gone now (1.5.0+). I'd love it if you gave it another chance and report back to see if that still persists.
If you're already using 1.5.0 and you still see that please let me now as well.
I use two of your themes, and Gauges does the same to me too. Don't understand why, but the other themes do not.
