I think this may have been due to  my original habit of trying to use
the shipped power adaptor to charge while using the system.

Of two of the "official" power adaptors only one worked and I saw this
issue with the second.

Since using a generic USB-C charger and only charging the system when
not in use I've not seen this (and I'm also running estd).
