Bug Description
When the battery charge as reported by upower goes to 0 Wh the system should hibernate. It doesn't. Instead it keeps running, and eventually the machine powers down. At the time the charge reaches 0 Wh, the indicator in the notification area goes away (it reappears if I plug in the machine, let charge go above 0 Wh, then unplug again, but that's probably a separate bug in the indicator?).
Happens only when set to hibernate on critically low battery; if set to shut down, it does.
Happens with both the 3.16.0-23 kernel and the upstream 3.17.1 kernel. Has happened in the past on previous distributions as well, but the UX31E suffered from other power issues where it randomly turned off even when the battery wasn't low, so never managed to reproduce it consistently. Power measurement, notifications of low and critical charge, etc. now work, and it even powers down on critical battery, but it just doesn't hibernate. Hibernation itself works fine with pm-hibernate and also with
dbus-send --print-reply --system --dest=
