Public bug reported:

This Xubuntu installation is just a few days old and the daemon
apparently worked on the machine (notifications were shown on screen)
when booted from the installation medium. After the permanent
installation and update i got no notifications on screen. When I open
Settings, it shows the following message: "The notification service is
not running. No notifications will be shown."

I tried querying systemd about it and got the following:

...% systemctl --user status xfce4-notifyd
● xfce4-notifyd.service - XFCE notifications service
     Loaded: error (Reason: Unit xfce4-notifyd.service failed to load properly: 
File exists.)
     Active: inactive (dead)
