ModernFlyouts VS WinDynamicDesktop

You could use modern flyout. It allows you to increase or decrease (also to 0) the number active of media sessions displayed.

If you don't want to mess around with any of your program's settings, you can install ModernFlyouts and change its' settings to never show any popups.
