Description Elias Probst 2014-05-08 23:20:33 UTC

KF5 based plasma-shell is affected by the same bug.
Patch from original bug doesn't apply.


+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #324847 +++

The battery monitor widget does not show batteries of newly added devices (e.g. if a wireless mouse is switched on after the battery monitor widget has been loaded). 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log into KDE, but do not connect e.g. a wireless mouse device
2. After KDE and the widget has been loaded, turn on device
3. Check in battery monitor

Actual Results:  
List of available batteries is not updated (upower --monitor-detail does show it, though).

Expected Results:  
List of available batteries is updated
