[Launchpad Bug Tracker <443979@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Banshee sends its album art via the "icon_data" hint ("image_data" in
http://www.galago-project.org/specs/notification/0.9/x344.html). When
this artwork is not square, i.e. its height != width, the image is not
displayed. This can be seen in the log found here:
http://orangesquash.org.uk/~laney/dbus.log which is an example of one
such notification which had its image ignored by Notify OSD.

In contrast, this does not happen for non-square icons sent via the "app_icon" argument, as mentioned here (http://www.galago-project.org/specs/notification/0.9/x408.html#command-notify). An example of dbus-monitor's output where this is concerned is as follows. Note that this means that notify-send *cannot* be used for attempting to reproduce this bug:
method call sender=:1.642 -> dest=org.freedesktop.Notifications serial=6 path=/org/freedesktop/Notifications; interface=org.freedesktop.Notifications; member=Notify
   string "notify-send"
   uint32 0
   string "/home/hyperair/Pictures/compiling.png"
   string "blah"
   string "blah"
   array [
   ]
   array [
      dict entry(
         string "urgency"
      )
      dict entry(
         string "category"
         variant             string ""
      )
   ]
   int32 -1
