Power indicator is hidden when only a secondary battery (such as mouse and keyboard) are discharging

[Marco Trevisan (Treviño)]

I've wireless keyboard and mouse and I've set the "Show battery status on the menu bar" to "When battery is charging/in use".

In this case, when my mouse and keyboard batteries are discharging the indicator should show, but without listing the not-charging devices (such as my notebook battery).

For the same reason, when using a desktop computer or a notebook without battery, the indicator won't ever show the state of the other battery powered devices available.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
