This seems to be the issue in kernel/acpi/hal which reports strange
remaining_time on some cases (in your case even insertion of CD).
Worse, it forces hibernation when the battery still has
plenty of capacity left.
What is the level at this point in time? Is it below 50%? guidance-
See bug 60442 for more analysis.
It probably makes sense to fix this for Edgy by changing
CHARGE_LEVEL_THRESHOLD to much lower value (5-10%?).

Fix to workaround this issue was committed in KDE SVN: r597776
Change CHARGE_LEVEL_THRESHOLD to 10% (was 50%) to better workaround acpi
issue when remaining_time is not reported correctly.
Also use threshold for battery low notification warning (do not issue low
warning if battery level above

Can you attach lshal output?
powermanager uses reported remaining time field for battery actions
and it may be that this is wrong on your HW.
