foobar2000 notification system and Windows 10

Well, foobar's song/volume (please add an option so I can disable the volume one) change notification are messed up on Windows 10.

Windows doesn't report the song/volume and only notifies me that foobar has a "New notification". This does not seem to be a Windows related thing, since all other applications that use the notify system work normally.

Just a heads up for when people start changing to Windows 10. It is surprisingly annoying.

Bump.

Anyone tried getting back Windows 7 notification system?

I didn't try myself yet, because I have no other problem with Windows 10 notifications, other then foobar2000's.
But you can do this via winaero.com/blog/enable-balloon-notifications-in-windows-10-and-disable-toasts/

One way is just turning the "balloon tooltip" in DUI.
But I like notifications on songs change, especially on shuffle.

I guess the devs can somehow limit the amount of how much tooltips volume change makes, or let us turn it off completely.
Of course we could just stop using changing volume in foobar internally, but do it 3rd party way, or just reach for speakers volume.

Or just dig in to Windows 10 notification settings "somehow".
deadbeef ftw!
