That is how it looks to me, as well. It looks like the joint compound
was applied on a rough surface, rather than like there are bubbles
under it. If there are bubbles, they should sound a little hollow if
you tap on them. If not bubbles, then careful sanding and appl. of
joint compound
might help get the surface a little flatter. It is tough to get the
texture to match the rolled texture, but sponging on a thick primer
might help match the rolled texture prior to final coat.
