One reason for keeping them separate is that it'd be easier to miss what the alarms/reminders relate to if they've been folded up.
Another is that you might want to snooze one of them, but not the other. I'd be fine with snoozing all or none, but with calendar reminders you might have per-event snoozing rules, which at some point we should probably respect. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to indicator-datetime in Ubuntu.

Indicator-datetime currently tries to pull up notifications for, and play sounds for, both notifications. That's happening by accident and is clearly not the right approach. I can think of a couple of approaches we might take: -- SOLUTION -- If 2 or more alarms have been triggered, the notification at any time will display: Title: 2 Alarms Subtitle: [Label 1] 10:00, [Label 2] 10:01 The sound of the first alarm will be played. If they have the same time, the one that has been created first.
