### 🐞 Description of the bug
A Fluent GPU session with GUI enabled was launched via PyFluent. When an electric potential setting is entered, a warning is printed in the Fluent Python console, but not in the Python interpreter.

### 📝 Steps to reproduce
Run the following commands in Python:
```
import ansys.fluent.core as pyfluent
from ansys.fluent.core.examples.downloads import download_file
solver = pyfluent.launch_fluent(processor_count=4, gpu=True, ui_mode="gui")
case_name = download_file("Static_Mixer_main.cas.h5", "pyfluent/static_mixer")
solver.settings.file.read_mesh(file_name=case_name)
solver.settings.setup.models.echemistry.potential = True
```

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with launch_fluent(processor_count=4, gpu=True, ui_mode="gui"), then set solver.settings.setup.models.echemistry.potential = True after reading Static_Mixer_main.cas.h5. Trace how the warning reaches the Fluent Python console versus the Python interpreter. Done means the electric-potential warning is also printed in the interpreter for this workflow.
