I have Asus 505 and backlight not work too (try via xfce4-power-manager).

I dig into it and found that problem somewhere in ACPI code.

1. It does not proper export some functions and FreeBSD
ACPI + xfce4-power-manager cant detect support this feature.
I hack kernel:
Index: /usr/src/sys/dev/acpica/acpi_video.c

        status = acpi_GetInteger(handle, "_DCS", &dcs);
        if (ACPI_FAILURE(status))

-                      acpi_name(handle), AcpiFormatException(status));

+               /* Assume that device OK by default. */
+               dcs = (DCS_EXISTS | DCS_ACTIVE | DCS_READY |
+                   DCS_FUNCTIONAL | DCS_ATTACHED);
+       }
 
        return (dcs);
 }
and now acpi/xfce4-power-manager show that feature supported but
it does not work.
(later I can move this hack into ACPI ASL code that load into bios, but it 
harder to maintain)

2. I dig more depper and decompile acpi code via isl.
There is a mess.
I found that function that set backlight level check some mem/register
value before write new backlight value.
I fail to found place where this value changed.
I try rewrite code to remove this check and recompile ACPI and load new
version witout this check on FreeBSD boot, it loaded but backlight still
not work.

Also I set in loader.conf:
hw.acpi.osname="Windows 2015"   # Some systems' ASL may have problems because 
they look for names of Microsoft operating systems.
because there is at least 4 different places in decompiled ACPI
where OS version and name checked - not help with blackligth, but as I see
this unblock some features/devices.


Also i2c touchpad dont work.
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D16698
not help.


For speakers probably wrong snddev set.
Try change hw.snd.default_unit.

I have another issue with amdgpu:
after lid closed and open again video freezes to few seconds every 10 seconds.
Switch to scfb xorg driver to fix it, but get small tearing on video playback.
