I think that, whatever you put in the ALSA volume, should stay there, no matter what, until you manually change it...
ALSA Volume setting will go back to 100% after saving MPD settings
BTW: restarting MPD service does not change this setting.
When MPD volume is set to "Disabled" i.e., 0dB and the device has a hardware volume controller then ALSA volume is set to 100% to ensure that the overall volume output (MPD + ALSA) is 0dB. This also happens when resuming MPD playback after the renderers.
This is not a new behavior. It's been this way for years.
