I confirm that the bug still exists, Ubuntu Mate 18.04, dual monitor set-up (pc screen + projector screen via HDMI). Notify-send + notify-osd works perfectly when no window is in full screen mode (F11), doesn't work nor on primary or secondary when there is a full screen window opened (doesn't matter if is on the primary or the secondary display).

I have an application open in full screen mode. I switch to another workspace. I run "notify-send" and no notification pops up. I am sad. I take the application out of full screen mode and try again. A notification pops up. I am happy. I try again... I take the application out of full screen mode immediately after requesting the notification. The notification does not appear. I am sad. Mostly, I am sad...
