I have also tried to restart hal (sudo /etc/dbus-1/event.d/20hal restart), but no success.
It is also the fact that /proc/acpi/battery/*/* does not report any change in battery state either, so I suspect this bug may be also kernel issue (unless acpi-support is not doing something it should, like reloading battery module or similar). See output of cat /proc/acpi/battery/*/* in couple of minutes (no change).
