On my new Sony VAIO laptop UPower is not sending line_power_AC events. When the AC power is disconnected, I get events (monitored using upower -m) for the battery, but not for line_power_ac. This results in the system thinking it is still plugged in.

I tested on my other Linux system, and disconnecting/reconnecting the AC power supply results in line_power_ac events.

Interestingly, on_ac_power (from pm-utils) correctly reports the AC power status for both connected and disconnected states.
