Bug Description

unity8 8.00+14.10.20140903.1~rtm-0ubuntu1
image# 29 RTM

When I receive a message, my phone halts for a moment and then resumes.

1. Open messaging app.
2. send a message to your own number
3. before the message is received slowly drag from the left edge to the right

What happens:
when you are dragging, there is a slight halt in the UI before the OSD appears.

When running ap tests on mako this morning, I noticed media-hub related messages in unity8{-dash}.log, and a lot of dbus timeouts.

I did have a media hub crash, that might be related to the hiccups.

I don't seem to be running into any crash. Also I can't make out any dbus timeouts in the *.log-files on the devices I tested this on. The stutter is more striking, when a sound is attached to the notification.

Just from looking at the back- and frontend of the notification-system, I don't know what could be done to eliminate the jerkiness. I think a closer look is needed a bit deeper in the stack (qtmir, audio-playback).
