Of course! I had forgotten dbus-debug...

Now I have 2 emacs sessions: one, where it's working as expected, and
another with the problem:

Here the output, where it's working:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
xd_retrieve_arg: u 2
xd_retrieve_arg: s key
xd_read_message_1: Event received: DBUS_MESSAGE_TYPE_SIGNAL 20 :1.278 /org/freedesktop/Notifications org.freedesktop.Notifications ActionInvoked (2 key)
xd_read_message_1: Event stored: (:session 4 20 :1.278 /org/freedesktop/Notifications org.freedesktop.Notifications ActionInvoked notifications-on-action-signal 2 key)

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Here the output with the problem:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
xd_retrieve_arg: u 4
xd_retrieve_arg: s hour
xd_read_message_1: Event received: DBUS_MESSAGE_TYPE_SIGNAL 38 :1.278 /org/freedesktop/Notifications org.freedesktop.Notifications ActionInvoked (4 hour)

When I call

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
  (dbus-register-signal
   :session
   notifications-service
   notifications-path
   notifications-interface
   notifications-action-signal
   'notifications-on-action-signal)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

in the second emacs session, the problem disappears for a while and then
comes back after a few minutes.
