There is a configuration option in a GUI...just not the one you looked
at.  This is really a documentation problem.  If someone turned the
instructions I'm including here into a FAQ entry or something like that,
I don't think there's any application change needed here.  It's just
really not obvious what to do.

The basic fix is to run gconf-editor and navigate to /apps/rhythmbox/ui
where you'll find a checkbox for show_notifications exposed.  Toggle
that off and notifications go away.

Unfortunately, gconf-editor isn't available via the default Ubuntu menu
structure either.  You can fix that by System/Preferences/Main Menu,
going into the System Tools section, and enabling "Configuration
Editor".  Now gconf-editor will be available with that name under
Applications/System Tools.

So the all-GUI solution here is to edit the menus, add Configuration
Editor, run Configuration Editor, navigate into the Rhythmbox UI
section, and turn off show_notifications.

Alternately, the quick command-line workaround is to edit
.gconf/apps/rhythmbox/ui/%gconf.xml and edit the line that looks like
this:

<entry name="show_notifications" mtime="1242152894" type="bool"
value="true"/>

so that the value is "false".  That seems to work fine, but you don't
have to do that manually and using the official editor tool would
presumably be preferred.
