The worst part is I can't even disable it if I am using my another SMS app, so now I have to clear two notifications for my text message and 50% of the time I usually end up in the Hangouts app where I don't want to be.

When will this madness stop?

Your other SMS app is broken needs to update to the new API that was introduced in KitKat, which should fix both problems:

Intercepting SMS required using a hidden API before. Now it's an officially supported feature.

My apologies then. I will contact the app developer.
