UPower polling rate too low, wrong power state.

[Ahmad Ismail]

Upower takes a relatively long time to refresh my laptop power state. It take almost a minute or more for it to detect power source change (plugging/unplugging the AC power). Also, if the upower service starts while the laptop is plugged in, it will remain stuck at the plugged in status but also report that the battery is discharging.
