The "proper" way would be to have it always explicitly setting something else with "-a," but apparently one can emulate the title-less implementation of other notification daemons with an wrap-around script like this:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
if [[ ! "${@}" =~ "-a " ]] ; then
/usr/bin/notify-send -a ""
#!/bin/bash
# volume changer+notifier, using notify-send, and tested only with xfce4-notifyd
# the syntax is the same of the "end" of what you'd use in plain amixer, see "$1"
# Ex.: 5%-, 5%+, 30, 60%
com=(`amixer set "Master" $1`)
vol1=${com[20]}
# and here's why it won't work for everybody. The output of amixer includes
# things like soundcard features, which are array elements I'm just
