notify-send over remote ssh connection no longer works in Karmic

In Jaunty (and previous versions), I could type the following:
ssh -X someuser at somehost.com
$ notify-send "test"
And it would pop up a notification on the machine I was sshing from.
In Karmic, this no longer works. I get the following error:
libnotify-Message: Unable to get session bus: Failed to connect to
socket /tmp/dbus-hSq8SKu8aw: Connection refused
I can confirm that the notify-osd daemon is running on both machines,
dbus is running on both machines, and that X forwarding is working.
If I type this:
ssh -X someuser at somehost.com
$ xmessage test
The xmessage dialog pops up just fine on my local machine.
I imagine this has something to do with the change from
notification-daemon to notify-osd, but I'm not sure what I need to do
to fix it. Can anyone help me out?
