I've taken some time to investigate this properly.

This problem will arise on an NVIDIA TwinView configuration when there
is no GNOME panel at the top of the screen; either through being removed
or moved elsewhere. notify-osd is programmed to follow the top panel
only, quite explicitly and I believe this design was intentional. The
fallback path attempts to place the OSD at the top-right of the desktop
area - which spans all monitors in a TwinView configuration and hence
appears on the rightmost monitor.

I am not sure what the correct solution is. I have made a private patch
to fix this on my system but it is not suitable for wider release.
