I figured out my issue (at least related to this topic)...I have Show in Notification Center and Show on Lock Screen turned off. So one, or both of these must suppress it from coming up on the MB screen. When I turn these both on, it comes up.

Thank you so much...this was the one feature I just could never seem to get working, until now...I had "Show on Lock Screen" turned off. Just turned it on and VOILA - text messages on the COMAND screen!
