Power applet shows as charging when unplugged

[Cefn]

Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

I have a dell inspiron 1525. It's possible there's some sequence like sleep, unplug, unsleep which creates the conditions for this bug to emerge.

The behaviour, given the default Ubuntu settings, is that the battery applet just disappears completely (since it thinks it's charging, and by default it is not shown).

I had to get into the power settings to change this, and then it became clear that it was confused about its charging state.
