Perfect! Had to log out and back in for the removal of notify-osd to take effect, and then the notification to wait for flushing to the device to complete disappeared when it was safe to remove it. I did some digging to find out how to replace notify-osd with xfce4-notifyd and found a post [1] that said that installing xfce4-notifyd will "remove notify-osd (as they cannot co-exist) and the ubuntu-desktop metapackage." However, when I tried to install xfce4-notifyd I was told that it was already installed, so I just did an apt-get remove notify- osd. So many things about Ubuntu that I don't understand. :-)
Thanks for your help!
