This is practically a haiku.

Best bug report I've seen in ages.

Popey, just to be clear, you're saying this is the same event going off thrice at the same time (or nearly the same time)? Does the same event show up N times in the indicator as well or when you open up ubuntu-clock-app, or is the multiplicity only in the notifications?

Also, would it be possible for you to attach (or mail me) your ~/.local/share/evolution/tasks/${some-long-random-name}/tasks.ics file along with information about which task went off 3x?

In my case,
- the same event goes off twice in succession. (like a few secs after
dismissing the first one the second appears)
- There is only one event instance shown in the indicator
- All events are notified twice.
- These were all sync'd from google.
