Something very similar here, I can not dismiss any alarms anymore since about a week (Lightning 1.9?). Running Ubuntu 12.04 amd64 and several CalDAV calendars on a Sogo-server.
It's not restricted to recurring events either.

A cumbersome workaround is to disable local caching of the agenda, restart Tbird and enable local copies again (in order to be able to work offline). That takes up to 20 minutes and more CPU than I would like, rendering the pc almost useless.
After that things work for a while, but once an event comes up that does not want to be dismissed, all following events join the list and keep bothering me every 15 minutes or so.
I end up shutting down Tbird completely and only open it twice a day out of annoyance. That is not a good situation for business use.
I would not like to disable alarms for missed events, since 'missed' often means if I hurry I can still get it done on time.

cheers
