I'm coming into this a bit late, but are you sure you don't have
state_stalking enabled for this service?

You will get a new notification if the various notification filters are
passed, and:
1) The state has changed, or
2) The notification_interval has been reached, or
3) is_volatile is set, or
4) state_stalking is enabled, and the text output of the plugin has
changed

We use state_stalking for some services, eg SNMP error alerts (where we
want to re-notify if a new alert comes in, but not if its just the same
one again)
