I have the kde-plasma/plasma-meta installed here, although I do not run the 
plasma desktop.  It has the USE flag pulseaudio enabled, which I suspect is 
needed to get things like desktop notifications working:

[+ C    ] pulseaudio
    kde-plasma/plasma-meta: Install Plasma applet for PulseAudio volume 
    management
        [+  ] (5) 5.13.5 [gentoo]
        [+  ] (5) 5.14.3-r1 [gentoo]
