This is rather a bug in gnome-power-manager and the patch for it to correctly use notifications, than notify-osd itself. The problem is that the number of supported brightness-levels is different from device to device. That number of supported brightness levels is currently not taken into account by gnome-power-manager (the patch to it) in order to normalize the value passed to notify-osd.
