Indicator LED's don't turn off when being charged using USB #3

While the OM is charging with the USB-C connector, the ability to disable the LED's is not working. When disconnected from the USB-C charger, the leds continue to preform as expected

i am seeing the same here. i also found the uart breakout wont publish data unless the usb c is plugged in. this might be a design choice as on battery you might want every power savings you can and an led is 20ma per color so 60ma if all 3 leds are 1 collor but max is like 180ma the battery is 1900ma so only leds on full on is like 10.5 hours and the battery is empty. and if only one collor is active its still a largeish consumer but then 14 days battery is empty but irl its inbetween so like 2-4 days of battery if only the leds are on.
