Security issue: USB files always visible even when locked

I have a Note 2 which is locked by fingerprint and passcode to protect the device. I want to permanently disable usb file transfer, which I choose from the USB preferences on the Note 2 after connecting to laptop. But each time I re-attach to laptop using USB cable it shows up on the laptop with all files visible and it resets the USB preference to file transfer again and again

I also tried enabling developer mode using Simple Settings and set the default USB configuration to no data transfer, but the device seems to completely ignore this setting.

This makes fingerprint/password protection absolutely useless, since anyone can just simply plug in the device while locked to get access to the files without unlocking the device.

How can I make the Note 2 permanently disable usb file transfer, or at least disable USB file transfer when the device is locked?
