Do you have a notification daemon installed?
The default for regolith is rofication
(exists in the regolith-rofication
package). You can also use something else, like dunst
or sway-notification-center
.
If it was a question of daemon installed, why would it work when I log in directly with Ubuntu and not work when I log in with Regolith?

Likely because the Ubuntu session runs a different notification frontend that has a pop-up notification UI. Regolith does not at this time by default, and as @SoumyaRanjanPatnaik pointed out, instead we use rofication
. The default approach in Regolith is to show the notification count in the bar and then allow users to view notifications via <super> n
.
You can replace the default notification backend with something else if you prefer (dunst
provides a pop-up widget UI), described here.
@kgilmer Somehow now it works again. I don't know exactly what I did (I didn't install dunst or rofication) and now I have the popup notifications appearing on my screen. How is it possible that it works again without having installed dunst or rofication?
