Compiz & The Notification Panel On XFCE

I stumbled upon a minor but irritating bug / quirk with Xubuntu Karmic 9.10 with Compiz and the panel / notification area over ruling each other. It comes down to which one loads first. I noticed that some applications like Audacious had their status icon active but invisible. You could click on where the icon should be and it'd act as if it was there, you just couldn't see it.
