Yes, this is a known issue:
https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/2191
There is also the problem of notifications suddenly reappearing for no reason (like when you switch between your BP theme and the Admin screens)
Fixed in the 1.2 branch – courtesy Andy:

[EDIT]
For friend requests… haven’t encountered the other issues above yet.
Cool, I think that fixed it.
I have 1.2.8 and having the same issue, i took a look into pb-friends.php and the code seems correct…
global $bp;
if ( isset( $_GET ) )
bp_core_delete_notifications_for_user_by_type( $bp->loggedin_user->id, $bp->friends->id, ‘friendship_accepted’ );
}
add_action( ‘bp_activity_screen_my_activity’, ‘friends_clear_friend_notifications’ );
@r-a-y @DJPaul?????
@brooker I followed the advice in this link and it worked. I, too, am using 1.2.8
