Public bug reported:

The meaning of the option “Display incoming events in the notification
area” is not clear. At first glance it looks like it would do what it
says, which is control whether incoming events (messages) are shown in
the notification area.  However, what it actually does is “automatically
open incoming events” (when off), or “hide incoming events in the
notification area instead of opening them in the chat window”.  This
option’s description should be made more clear. See bug #652568 and its
duplicates for several cases where this problem has bitten people
