I think If you remove the "r" flag in host_notification option for your
pager contact, you will not
Get notificaton for ack's, but you will not get notifications for up
states either.

Check if you got retain_state_information=1 enabled in your host.cfg,
maybe you
Got it disabled there. 
Retain_state_information will save your ack's in the
Retention file, but not the host alerts settings. For this you must use
retain_program_information.
