Well, if the NUT Monitor gui is opened I get a message almost immediately.
Both a 'pop-up' in the upperright corner of the desktop (LXDE) and a 'message
notification' in the system tray. But never a message in the LXterminal.
See my previous message for my upsmon.conf

Are you sure this is not a coincidence? Sometimes there is a delay from when
you pull the plug, and when the power failure propagates through the NUT
toolchain.
You should see a startup message from upsmon in /var/log/syslog.
