One way to avoid this is the `buffer-offer-save' variable, e.g like
this.

(add-hook 'first-change-hook
          #'(lambda nil
              ;; set for all 'regular' buffers
              (unless (string-match "\\`[ *].*[*]\\'"
                                    (buffer-name))
                (setq buffer-offer-save t))))
