Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: notify-osd
If i have, e.g. gnome-terminal open in fullscreen on workspace 2, and I
am at the moment on workspace 1, notify-osd won't "send" the
notification to the screen. This behavior makes sense if the active
workspace is the one where the fullscreen-app is running, but when it is
not, it makes no sense what so ever. Sending the notification as
`notify-send -u critical "test"` will make it appear anyhow, but a
normal notification won't.
I think this is bad design and should be fixed so that the notification
will appear as long as the fullscreen-app is _not_ running on the active
workspace. This behavior seems to be working with a "no effects
desktop", but not with Unity and Compiz.
