TLDR : Answer Summary

Leaving Thailand while your extension of stay application is under consideration will cancel the application. You can travel without notifying the Immigration Office, and there will be no issue with your exit.

The under consideration period will be cancelled when you leave the country, no problem to leave without telling the Immigration Office that you are now able to travel.
