Yes.

OK, I remove the timeout.

Unfortunately, it doesn't work either. When unread-command-events is
non-nil, read-event takes the events from there instead of reading them
from the input streams. This happens after the first time a character
has been read in the loop, before the awaited D-Bus event did arrive.

I've committed my original patch (minus the read-event timeout). Bug is
closed.

Best regards, Michael.

Hello,

Please try the following code:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(require 'notifications)

(defun test-func ()
  (notifications-notify
   :title     "Test"
   :timeout   1000))

(run-with-timer 2 2 'test-func)                    
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

with "emacs -Q" (latest version from trunk).

Then just type some text and you'll see, that some of the letters, that
you type, will be missing in the buffer.

Cheers, Peter
