According to user tgpraveen, in the latest update to empathy its configuration does not have "show notifications when chat is not focussed" enabled by default. This should be changed. This is an issue of empathy, not of notify-osd as initially reported.

affects:

notify-osd (Ubuntu) → empathy (Ubuntu)

I have bubblea enabled on preferences, I can hear the sounds, but there's no bubble indicator when contact comes on-line, whether conversation has focus or doesn't.
