Comment 18 for bug 603526

My testing (in Lucid) seems to shown that notifications happen when the windows are minimised to the task bar, but not when when they are unminimised and out of focus. Evolution provides new mail notifications when it is out of focus and unminimised. But things are more complicated with Empathy as there is a Contact List window and a possible Conversation window. If the Conversation window is open, then that should control notifications, but if the Conversation Window is not open, then the Contact List window should control notifications. I guess you guys have probably worked that one out already.
