Bug Description

Settings in Powerdevil does not seem to work.

I have these settings:
* AC: dim screen after 5 minutes, sleep when closing lid.
* Battery: dim after 5 mins, switch off after 10, sleep after 15, sleep on close.
* Low battery: dim after 1, switch off after 2, sleep after 5, sleep on close.

This is what happens:
* AC: dim at ca 3:45, switch off (black screen) at 5
* Battery: dim at ca 2:30, dim more at 3:45, switch off at 5

Obviously some other setting overrides the seetings of Powerdevil.

I am on (K)Ubuntu Studio 20.04 with Plasma 5.18.5. Hardware HP zBook 15 G3
