Ohhh!

No.

That's the definition of the difference between hard and soft timeout, 
I believe.

The softtimeout is an inactivity timer. The hardtimeout is for forcing 
a disconnect after that long using the system. Nothing odd there.

If you only want the inactivity timer, set hardtimeout to something 
obscenely long like 86400 (a day) or 604800 (a week). That should take 
care of your problem. =)
