Low power notification doesn't go away until I click it

When my laptop's battery is running low, a notification pops up telling me the power is low and gives me options to hibernate/shutdown. When I plug the laptop in, the notification doesn't go away until I click it. Is there any way to make the notification disappear after plugging in my laptop to charge?

I'm using the latest XFCE on Manjaro Linux.

Re: Low power notification doesn't go away until I click it

Hello and welcome.

This doesn't sound like Xfce's notification daemon. What does the following return:

ps -ef | grep -E 'notif|dunst'
systemctl --user status xfce4-notifyd

Just in case, I saw this in the list of improvement/additions for Xfce 4.16:

Autohide for the low-battery notification when connecting to a charger

Executing

returns:

And executing

systemctl --user status xfce4-notifyd

returns:

Thank you for pointing this out. If it's only a problem in XFCE 4.14 but they plan to fix it in 4.16 then that's ok with me.
