This is an old one, but I have an update (note: I'm original reporter of this
bug).

It seems this is not related to anything "system-wide", but something with my
own session/config. I just reinstalled fresh new Kubuntu 23.10 with KDE Plasma
5.27.8 and copied just my $HOME from old laptop. Power button doesn't work.
However, as an experiment, I also created a new user, logged as that new user
and... power button was properly handled over there!

Note that my $HOME is quite old (20+ years, dragging stuff back from KDE 3
era), so I guess some of that old config is conflicting with PowerDevil. I
tried deleting `~/.config/powermanagementprofilesrc`, but it didn't help. It's
obviously something else.

But, now I have working AND non-working sessions and config files, so if anyone
is interested in helping me debug this, I'll be glad to experiment. Simply
deleting `~/.config` would put me *months* behind in my daily business, so that
one is off the table, but anything less that that I'm willing to try.
