If you don't have a compatible notification daemon running, disable notification support in mpDris.conf.

Thank you, it works!

I'm not sure what's the best way to handle this without crashing, but I think I'll add an error if notifications are enabled but org.freedesktop.Notifications isn't already present on startup (since it's a multi-provider name and relying on auto-activation for these is explicitly not recommended).
