It seems running as upsd, otherwise it makes no sense not to work. However
upsd user doesn't have a shell (I see /bin/false as it's shell in YaST

Users and Group Management which might be the reason for it not being able
to execute shell commands such as echo or wall. Does it actually work for
you? Can you suggest another way of notifications so that everything works?

Thanks.
