Bug Description
When I start a new kde 4.2 session, notifications work fine. Then I hide an applet from the system tray (like kbluetooth and kwallet systemtray icons) using the new "hiding system tray items" feature of kde 4.2. After this I get...double notifications from everything (take a look at the screenshot). I tried to unhide the applets hoping to revolve this and then....triple notifications!
In short: every time I move a system tray icon from visible to hidden or the opposide I get one more
duplicate of notifications. Removing systemtray applet and re-adding it to the
panel, or doing a logout, fixes the issue until I hide again something in the system tray...
I don't know if this is specific to ubuntu packages (didn't have this problem
with 4.2rc1 under opensuse), but in the original bug report every people with this problem is using kubuntu.

Ok, the problem is absent from kde trunk (tried with latest project neon build for intrepid). But no developer in upstream bug report say to have fixed this. Given this, given the fact that everyone with this problem is on kubuntu and given that in kubuntu 4.2 packages there are some backport for the systemtray I'm even more confortable in thinking that this is a kubuntu specific problem. It happens both in intrepid 4.2 packages and in jaunty.
