[Nut-upsuser] Nut 2.7.2 on OpenBSD 5.6 with APC USB UPS

[Stan Gammons]

I have an APC USB UPS that was working on OpenBSD 5.5 with NUT 2.7.1   
When I installed the latest 5.6 snapshot with NUT 2.7.2 the UPS no 
longer sends status messages when it loses line power.  I asked over on 
the OpenBSD ports list and so far haven't had any luck getting this to 
work again.  I disabled upd at boot as was suggested and that didn't 
change anything except stopping the random upd detached messages.

Here's the output of upsc with the UPS plugged in

  Here's the output of upsc with the AC unplugged for 10 seconds. As you
can see the input voltage dropped to 0, but ups.status remains online.

Any ideas why this stopped working or what else I can try to get this to 
work again?  Go back to OpenBSD 5.5 is the option I'm looking at at this 
point.
