showing the incorrect full battery tray icon
SUMMARY
On a desktop PC with no internal/system battery, the Power and Battery widget
shows an incorrect full battery icon in the system tray only when the active
power profile is Balanced.
This does not happen with the other two profiles (Power Save and Performance),
which show their correct tray icons.
The only battery exposed through UPower is a Logitech G705 wireless mouse
battery (HID++).
The battery icon shown for Balanced does not appear to represent the mouse
battery either, because it appears as a generic full battery icon and does not
match the actual peripheral charge level.
Power profiles are available and work correctly.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use Plasma on a desktop PC without an internal battery
2. Make sure power-profiles-daemon is active and power profiles are available
3. Connect a Logitech HID++ wireless mouse
4. Set the active power profile to Balanced
OBSERVED RESULT
When the active profile is Balanced, the tray icon changes to a full battery
icon.
When the other two profiles are active, their expected tray icons are displayed
correctly (leaf and rocket).
This battery icon appears to be generic and does not reflect the actual mouse
battery level.
The power profile slider in the widget is present and works correctly.
EXPECTED RESULT
On a desktop PC without an internal battery, the tray icon should represent the
active power profile.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 6.6.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.24.0
Qt Version: 6.10.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
powerprofilesctl shows all profiles correctly and power-profiles-daemon is
active.
upower -e
/org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/battery_hidpp_battery_0

upower -d | grep -E "battery|DisplayDevice"

This suggests that UPower sees only the Logitech mouse battery and no system
battery.
