This is fixed, but there has not been a HAL release cut with the fix. It is in git so you can go here and compile HAL and see that it now does work as it should (showing the right amount of battrie(s)).

If you want to see this fixed run these commands:

1) sudo apt-get install git-core build-essential
2) sudo apt-get build-dep hal
3) git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/hal
* Now go into "hal" dir
4) ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr
5) make
6) sudo make install
* Now reboot your machine and log back in. You will see the battery is now reporting right again.
