Bug Description
Binary package hint: notify-osd
This is on an up-to-date lucid with a dual-screen setup and metacity as window manager (no compiz).
Since a short time I notice that an notification bubble appears for a fraction of a second in the left upper corner (on the left monitor) before it jumps to the right upper corner (on the right monitor) where it gets display till the timeout.
But when there are several events in queue waiting to get displayed, I see the last notification bubble in the left corner till it's time for it to get display in the right location.
See the attached screenshot. I see the notification bubbles for 1 to 5 appear fast in the left upper corner and "5" stays there till it gets display in the other corner.
Some more testing shows that this flickering of the notification bubble only happen when I've a window in the left upper corner (which is the case the most time as I've place there the window with my IRC client)

This also affects me - notifications are queued on the the left of the screen, and then appear on the right when the previous one has disappeared. They also don't disappear when my mouse cursor is above them. I running Ubuntu Netbook Edition, and it can be annoying especially when you have gwibber-service running with notifications.
