Public bug reported:

Hardware:
- Acer Aspire A715-76G
- Intel Alder Lake iGPU
- NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop GPU
- Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
- X11

Working kernel:
6.17.0-40-generic

Broken kernel:
7.0.0-28-generic

Problem:

Brightness control stopped working after upgrading to Linux 7.0.0-28.

The GNOME brightness slider moves normally.

brightnessctl successfully changes:

/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness

Example:

brightnessctl set 10%

reports success and the brightness value changes, but the physical
display brightness never changes.

Booting back into Linux 6.17.0-40 restores correct brightness control
immediately.

This appears to be a regression introduced in Linux 7.0.
