[Bug 1290623] [NEW] Lenovo T440 dual battery shows wrong battery status

 

Public bug reported:

I have one of the new Lenovo T440 ultrabooks, which has an internal
battery, and an extra external slice battery.  When the external battery
depletes, the internal battery takes over, but indicator-power always
shows the dead battery as the active battery in the panel.   Ideally I
would think that with two batteries you would get a combined percentage
left, rather than just one battery status? I can click the icon and see
both, but the wrong one is showing up when just looking up at the panel.

I have included a screenshot.
