This is a problem with your hardware; on my system ACPI generates on unplug:

acpi_ADP1 property ac_adapter.present = false
acpi_BAT1 property battery.remaining_time = 7237 (0x1c45) (new)
acpi_BAT1 property battery.charge_level.rate = 20714 (0x50ea)
acpi_BAT1 property battery.reporting.rate = 20714 (0x50ea)
acpi_BAT1 property battery.rechargeable.is_discharging = true

You see how the is_discharging value is present in my output but not yours? In g-p-m we have to go with what the battery says, rather than the ac_adapter so we can support the different types of multibattery laptops.

Can you do a BIOS update, or maybe fix your DSDT? What laptop do you have?
