Postgresql notifications through Socketcluster

I have a table I am watching but cannot receive the notifications, the body is always empty.

My worker.js:

scServer.on('connection', function (socket) {
    pg.connect(connectionString, function(err, client) {
        if(err) {
            console.log(err);
        }

        client.on('notification', function(msg) {
            console.log(msg);
            // emit
            socket.exchange.publish('updates_selections,', msg);
        });
        var query = client.query("LISTEN updates_selections");
    });
  });
});

The console shows:

Message {
  name: 'notification',
  length: 28,
  processId: 29189,
  channel: 'updates_selections',
  payload: '' }

The procedure (gets triggered fine on update and insert but either no data gets passed or the pg client doesn't get it)

CREATE or replace FUNCTION notify_trigger() RETURNS trigger AS $$
DECLARE
BEGIN
  PERFORM pg_notify('updates_selections',  'id' || NEW.id||'price'|| NEW.price|| 'status'|| NEW.status|| 'name'|| NEW.name ||'type'|| TG_OP );
  RETURN new;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

I am using postgres 9.2 and can't upgrade yet in order to use json_build_object btw.

What am I doing wrong?
