I want to see which notification daemon is running. This is because I want to replace it, since it does not properly confirm the notification from blueman-applet.
I mention that I am running the i3 window manager.

I found out myself.
- Trigger the notification again
- Open a console, and run
xwininfoto find out which process created the notification window. - Uninstall that application, and install a different one (such as
notification-daemonorxfce4-notifyd) - Restart.
In my case the culprit was dunst, which did not show buttons to Confirm / Deny the Bluetooth pairing.
Edit: another answer seems to be more complete (showing you the mechanism of Unity notifications).

Nice solution, I would not have thought of this approach myself. – Austin Hemmelgarn Jul 20 '18 at 19:42

@AustinHemmelgarn Thanks; but I'm still hoping someone knows an even better solution – danuker Jul 21 '18 at 6:40

@danuker, so have you found no way to use
dunstand deal with confirm/deny buttons? – Enrico Maria De Angelis Jul 25 '18 at 18:24 -
@EnricoMariaDeAngelis I didn't spend ANY time at all to figure out if buttons can be enabled. I don't remember installing it, and can't be bothered to learn and tinker with yet another basic tool. Perhaps they can be enabled, but I prefer a notification daemon which shows an interrogation's buttons by default. – danuker Jul 27 '18 at 15:17
