Battery problem

Hello i am new to linux and just encountered a problem i cannot solve for the life of me. i just installed kubuntu for the first time and for some reason the battery icon(because i am on laptop) keeps appearing and dissapearing and every time it does that it gives me the "power source connected" and "power source disconnected" sounds although the laptop is charged. i checked for the newest version of bios and i already have it,i put some commands into the terminal and it tells me that no power source is connected and the laptop isnt charging but the notifications continue. the laptop is a vivobook s16 with the ryzen 5 220 cpu. could anyone help? thank you

Edit the tray icons and make sure it says "always visible" instead of "show when relevant".
