I am seeing this same bug. Albeit not on Ubuntu 11.10 but on Mint Linux
12, but I believe it to be the same. I am using a Lenovo B570 laptop
which has a function key to increase and decrease the screen brightness.
So in my case, once I enter the user password to unlock the screen, I
then use the function key to increase and restore the screen brightness.
This issue occurs regardless if I am running on AC or battery.

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

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

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.
