I found at least two reddit post and there is solution to fix it:
The way to get around this is to create a custom skin disabling the fade effect and it will now show the notification content.
Open the folder ~/.steam/root/
Create new folder "skins" ~/.steam/root/skins
Go to terminal and enter: cd ~/.steam/root/skins
Then enter: emkdir -p Bottom-Right/resource
Then enter: cp -r ~/.steam/root/resource/styles Bottom-Right/resource
Now find and open a new file "steam-styles" with text editor located here: ~/.steam/root/skins/Bottom-Right/resource/styles
Inside steam-styles search for "Notifications.PanelPosition" and change it to BottomRight if it is not already then set Notifications.SlideDirection to "None" then save.
Now open steam and go to settings>>interface and then select skin "Bottom-Right" then restart steam.
Now notifications should appear without fade and contain information and not just a black box.
its blacked out when you are on workspaces where steam is not running
When i am in game , then i ll get usual notification like in windows
