Q: I don't receive notifications on my MacBook's screen for new SMS messages even though I get the new message bubble (that red bubble) on my Messages app icon. Is this normal?

When I receive a new message on my phone, as the settings are all completed, my MacBook also displays the message in the Messages app.  I get the bubble on the app icon that shows how many new messages are available.  This part is all fine, but I don't get a notification on my screen. My notification settings for the Messages app seem to be fine, so what can be the problem?

MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015), OS X El Capitan (10.11.1)
