The OSD for the backlit keyboard is displayed but no progress bar and no actual effect to the backlight. Almost as if the shell only understands laptops with a single key for controlling the keyboard backlight... Bug verified in cosmic on: * Asus UX331UAL * Apple Macbook Pro 12,1 * Apple Macbook Air All of them have these keys and they all fail in the same way. However it is not a kernel bug. The kernel interface (/sys/class/leds/*::kbd_backlight/*) works when I write to it directly. This seems to be a problem with Gnome Shell only.
