libnotify error GLib.Error: The name org.freedesktop.Notifications was not provided by any .service files

I am getting this error. Any idea what is wrong? 

from gi.repository import Notify
Notify.init("App Name")
Notify.Notification.new("Hi").show()

GLib.Error: g-dbus-error-quark: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.Notifications was not provided by any .service files

(using latest Raspbian on Raspberry Pi)
