I had the same issue too after dist-upgrade from ASCII to Beowulf.

I have added:
~~~
export NO_AT_BRIDGE=1
~~~
in `/etc/environment` and also I have installed `at-spi2-core`.

This seems to have blocked the alerts, but I don't know if it's a real solution
or just a workaround that doesn't solve the underlying problem.

Also I am using lightdm (+ MATE).

Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems to me that it is similar to the
`export NO_AT_BRIDGE=1` workaround. If so the 'xserver-share=false' setting in
the lightdm configuration seems to me to be more appropriate.
