eheh, in fact no. SuSE use the "nobody" user, not the "ups, nut or whatever
ups/nut related name".
This point is one of those addressed by the NUT Packaging Standard...

the problem here seems more to be that the group (nobody) lacks the write
flag (should be -rw-rw-r--  1 root nobody). What is strange is that the
/etc/hotplug/usb/libhidups already do the a chown root:nobody and chmod  660
...
Do you have changed something in this file?
