Workaround :
1- Install  xbacklight (sudo apt-get install xbacklight)
2- Disable password after screensaver has locked screen (in system settings / screen)
3- Create a keystroke shortcut to run "xbacklight -set 100" (in system settings / keyboard /shortcut)
Now, when screen brightness is None, use the keystroke to switch the light on

Title:
  LCD brightness NOT restored upon returning from screen lock in GNOME
  shell

Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  On a laptop running gnome-shell where gnome-screensaver automatically
  locked the screen after a certain predetermined time, the LCD
  brightness is at minimal. This makes it extremely difficult to see
  where someone should type their password to unlock the session.
  Additionally, brightness is not restored after unlocking the session
  either.
