After restarting my Ubuntu VM, notifications appear to be working properly. Well, at least I get a notification bubble, and a blue message envelope, though I'm not seeing the change in the dock's "tiny triangle" (item #2 from the list in the bug description).
I noticed that I had a 'telepathy-indicator' process running. When I killed it and asked someone to IM me, I got the behavior I described in the bug description. Then when I started it up again, notifications were working properly.

So perhaps telepathy-indicator was crashing?
