Public bug reported:

Hello,
for about a month or so there is a bug affecting Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. Some apps 
like Slack (chat) started to popup new regular windows instead of 
osd-notifications.
Not sure what causes this as notify-send works as expected and so does other 
system notifications I've seen so far (including Rhythmbox).

Sadly, those windows are cumulating on the desktop and needs to be
closed, so I had to disable notifications in the Slack chat app for
instance.

// Please note I know the risks of using a development versions of
Ubuntu - though I am following the same path on my personal laptop for
quite a few years now. I am reporting this just so that it can be looked
into - I am in no way trying to blame anyone for anything :).

Thank you very much.
