upower takes long time to detect laptop AC charger plugged in

[Balanarayan K]

upower takes a really long time (around 1-2 minutes) to detect when an AC charger is plugged-in.
'upower -d' shows battery state as discharging after AC charger is plugged-in.
'systemctl restart upower.service' would update the status immediately as charging. Otherwise, it takes 1-2 minutes before upower updates the status.

Laptop Model: Acer Aspire E15 E5-573G-56JN

Laptop battery and AC charger is not faulty as the charging/discharging status gets correctly detected when using Windows 10.

Hi,

upower 0.99.18 version contains the fix for this. Are there plans to integrate this version to Ubuntu 20.04?
