Public bug reported:

Hi,

aa-notify is highly annoying.

Unfortunately the aa-armor profiles of firefox and chromium-browser are
poorly maintained and cause dozens, hundreds, thousands of log messages
for denied access, in most cases the same message again and again.

aa-notify then throws dozens, hundreds of notification tiles on the
desktop, sometimes faster than one can click them to go away, thus
rendering the desktop unusable, making windows invisible.

It is broken by design to throw unlimited numbers of notification on the
user interface.

regards
