Comment:

 When working with filters, you need to return something when you are not
 working with your own conditional statement; that's why you are getting a
 `null` value for other notifications.

 Your example should look something like this:

 {{{
 function step_2a( $component_action, $item_id, $secondary_item_id,
 $item_count, $format = 'string' ) {
     if ( $component_action === 'my_first_component' ) {
         // Do something making sure to return the appropriate type (array
 in this case).
         return array( CUSTOM_ARRAY );
     }

     // Make sure you return the default value so other notifications will
 still work
     return $component_action;
 }
 add_filter( 'bp_notifications_get_notifications_for_user', 'step_2a', 10,
 5 );
 }}}

 Let me know if that works for you.
