Public bug reported:

OS: Lubuntu Noble Development Edition.
Hardware: virt-manager VM.

Steps to reproduce:

1: Boot a Lubuntu Noble VM that hasn't been updated in a while (there needs to 
be updates available to trigger the bug).
2: Open Lubuntu Update.
3: Click "Check for Updates".
4: Provide your password.

Expected result: Updates should appear in the window, and a notification
should be shown in the upper-right corner with white text on a greyish
background.

Actual result: Updates do indeed appear in the window, but the
notification is shown in the upper-left corner with black text on a
yellow background shaped like a speech bubble.

Additional info: This appears to be a race condition - Lubuntu Update is
probably starting before lxqt-notificationd fully starts, and Qt is
falling back to some sort of "default" notification display mechanism as
a result. One can kill lxqt-notificationd and still get notifications
from Lubuntu Update (incorrectly positioned and themed).

Unless LXQt provides a way to require one service to fully start before
another, this will probably be easiest to work around by adding a check
in the code that waits for lxqt-notificationd to be available before
actually starting the app (and times out if it doesn't show up for a
long time, 30 seconds or so).
