--- Comment #1 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
During the time when it happens, can you hover the pointer over the battery
icon in your system Tray? If you do, does it say something like "plugged in the
still discharging"?

My theory is that the laptop is drawing more power than the power supply can
provide, and the net discharge of energy is tricking powerdevil into thinking
it's unplugged, and therefore inappropriately entering "on battery power" mode.
If I'm right, then technically it is using battery power, but this isn't really
what the user thinks of when they think about a laptop on battery power.
