Bug Description
I am using Ubuntu 15.04 on Asus Zenbook UX301L. The problem is that battery indicator always says "using battery power", even when laptop is on AC power. There is no such problem under Windows. I always thought it was a minor issue until my laptop got shutdown today because it thought battery power was critical (it was at 100% and on AC power of course, but system decided it wasn't). Worst of all is that I cannot disable this action in power options. Which makes this bug kinda critical.
