This bug is due to a udev rule in /lib/udev/rules.d/95-upower-wup.rules.

This udev rule erroneously assumes that USB VID:PID 0403:6001 is assigned to "Watts Up? Pro" from Watts Up Inc. The VID:PID is rather assiged to a FT232 USB Serial adapter chip from FTDI Inc. The FT232 is a generic electronic part which is default configured with the said VID and PID. This part is used in a lot of development boards and different kind of products. It cannot be assumed that this VID and PID belongs to the Watts Up Pro product.
