Title:
  Double brightness events after logging in.

Status in Gnome Powermanager:
  New
Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  output of lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu oneiric (development branch)
  Release:	11.10

  Package:
  gnome-settings-daemon:
    Installed: 3.1.90-0ubuntu1
    Candidate: 3.1.90-0ubuntu1
    Version table:
   *** 3.1.90-0ubuntu1 0
          500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/main amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  Expected result: At the login screen, brightness keys increase and
  decrease brightness by one step. After logging in, brightness keys
  continue to increase and decrease brightness by one step.

  Actual result: At the login screen, brightness keys increase and
  decrease brightness by one step (same as expected, OK.) After logging
  in, brightness increases and decreases by two steps whenever a
  brightness key is pressed.

  This specifically seems to apply to the POWER plugin for gnome-settings-daemon. setting "active" to false via 
  "gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power active false" returns the behavior to normal, but removes the gnome power indicator. However, since the battery indicator is present at the login screen, there must be a second application, hotkey, etc, trying to change brightness.
