Hey thanks for reporting this. I never thought about the second LED, what extra information does one gain?

I'd assume this is a difference in the kernel driver between linux kernel 4.x and 5.y but I am unsure. I have no active patches in that direction though.

Yeah I am not sure why/where it breaks. I went all the way back to kernel 4.15 and the led was still not working. Maybe it is a debian/userspace problem. If you find the cause I'd gladly fix it, but I don't think it is worth spending lots of time on.

unconfirmed but seems related
