It seems that Lightning and SOGo calendar refresh mechanism have a bug, or certainly behave badly. When the calendar refreshes against the server, subject to preference 'calendar.autorefresh.timeout', the reminder dialog closes, never to open again. This is a problem because if you go away for a few minutes and come back to your desk, you may miss the reminder.
It seems that when the preference 'calendar.alarms.showmissed' is set to 'true', the problem is alleviated. It's as if it springs back after the refresh. But with it set to 'false' the reminder notification dialog disappears forever, no opertunity to snooze either. It's hard to beleive this has gone unnoticed or fixed, it's pretty fundemental to SOGo calendar users. Also, the default for 'calendar.alarms.showmissed' is 'false'. So it should effect most users. I stumbled upon it when I was forcing my users prefs to 'false' for the said setting, then the problem showed up very quickly under testing. The reason I switched to 'false' was because some are experiencing problems with ghost reminder popups. They keep coming back. Now I will have to test if there really is an issue with dismiss reminder when 'calendar.alarms.showmissed' is 'true'. It may be a case of which is the lesser evil. I suspect past events with reminders could be the cause.
