Title:
  Backlight cannot be adjusted at lock screen

Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in unity source package in Xenial:
  New

Bug description:
  [Inpact]

  This affects 14.04 LTS. I haven't tried any more recent versions.

  When the screen is locked, it is not possible to use the Fn+Brightness
  up/down keys.

  If I am using an external monitor, then I turn down the backlight
  brightness to zero. I often use my laptop at the office with an
  external monitor and the backlight turned off.  When I come home and
  resume, the backlight is off and I cannot switch it on to see the
  login prompt.

  
  [Test Case]

  Steps to reproduce
  1. Set backlight brightness to off using Fn+brightness down
  2. Lock computer with Super+L
  3. Attempt to increase brightness with Fn+brightness up

  Expected results:
  Backlight switches on, and Lock/login screen becomes visible

  Actual results:
  Backlight remains off and Lock/login screen is not visible

  
  [Regression Potential] 

  Some media-key bindings couldn't work as expected (so keys for
  suspension, volume control, power...)
