Ronan, yours is a different issue I believe. As far as I can tell you are talking about Unity, not GNOME-Shell. Also, all other protocols, including xmpp, work fine here. The issue with IRC is different because normally many "normal" messages can be received through IRC without a need for a notification. A notification should only be raised if one of the received messages is specifically addressed to me by e.g. including my name.
It would be better to file a different bug report in your case. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to empathy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/877698 Title: no notifications for direct IRC messages any more Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: No notification pops up any more since the update to Ubuntu 11.10 when someone mentions my nickname in an IRC channel.
