Bug Description
Notifications become hollow or blank on mouse-over. Most likely an artifact of using VMware. I believe the notification not showing in the correct location is caused by a known bug having to do with changing the screen resolution.

Luc, that is not a bug. This is the intended look of notify-osd's "click-through" feature. Since you running an non-composited desktop in your VMware session, "notify-osd" cannot use compositing to support alpha/transparency. It can either do opaque or fully transparent (nothing in between). Since the "click-through" works in both cases (composited and non-composited) you should be able to see what you clicking on. That's why the notification- bubbles contents are rendered "blank". Remember you cannot interact with the notification bubbles themselves. They are meant to never "get in your way (of workflow)".
