Bug Description

Setting power profile from GNOME into power saver automatically sets it to balanced after a while.
Let battery drain down to critical and have automatic power saver on. Power saver profile is on for a while.
Expected: Power profile stays on power saver.
Actual: In about 15 minutes the power profile is seemingly set to balanced when opening the power management window, although there is a text saying that the power profile is set to saver due to the aforementioned configuration.

No LSB modules are available.
Description: Ubuntu 23.04
Release: 23.04

powerprofilesctl --version
0.12

This is a firmware or kernel bug, not a power profiles daemon bug. Please report it to Lenovo to investigate the details.
