This is a strange bug that I've not been able to reproduce outside of Guard. I'm using it with `guard-rspec` and `guard-spork`, when I start it the "spork started successfully" is shown then libnotify stop working. I can't send notification using any other means (I've tried `notify-send` and from `irb` using the `libnotify` directly) after the first notification sent by guard. I then need to restart Gnome to make it work again. There's no error messages anywhere, althought I'm not sure where to look. I'm not experiencing this issue with other application using `libnotify`.

Here's the gems I'm using:
* libnotify-0.5.9
* guard-0.8.8
* guard-spork-0.3.2
* guard-rspec-0.5.8

And some of my (ArchLinux) system information:
* libnotify 0.7.4
* notification-daemon 0.7.3
* gtkmm 3.2.0
* gtk3 3.2.2
* gnome-session 3.2.1
* xmonad 0.9.2
