Bug Description
When using the sound menu, the user is immediately visually notified about switching of tracks by the menu itself.
+
When notifying using Notify-OSD, it covers some parts of sound menu itself. I think Notify-OSD should not be shown when switching tracks using the sound-menu and MAY BE whenever switching manually.
Example video:

PS:
U1 was not working, so dropbox. :)
and yes, I did spend like 10 minutes thinking which songs I should show in the video. :P
The equivalent for the volume slider is bug 1389761.

There's a small catch we've to think about. The time of notification- arrival (in notify-osd) and time of display (by notify-osd) is not guaranteed to be close to each other, because of the notification-queue in notify-osd.
With every notification we get the name of the sending application, which we could test that against certain media-players. Depending on the outcome of that check, we could do some method-call via dbus to see if the sound-indicator menu is open (not sure if that's possible though) and skip the display of the bubble.
I don't know how much trouble it'll cause if people skip numerous tracks very fast and we would have all these dbus-calls in between then.
