Title:
  Brightness/volume bubbles don't show old value before new value

Status in “notify-osd” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotifyOSD#Volume%20changes> and
  <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotifyOSD#Brightness%20and%20backlight%20changes>
  both say: "To make clearer which key was pressed, if the bubble was
  not already open, the gauge should show the old value for half a
  second before switching to the new value."

  I don't know if the old value is currently being showed for half a
  second or not. It's just that it does not last enough for me to notice
  it (maybe the time is counted from the moment the bubble starts to
  fade in or maybe I'm too slow for a 0.5" change). If I'm on the alert
  for it I can see it changing, but most of the time I find myself
  pressing the key twice just to ensure it's changing.

  I know it's very difficult to balance this feature with the perceived
  responsiveness of the system so I don't expect this to be changed, but
  I just want to let you know about it.
