Repro:
1. Press Fn+F3/F4 in fresh install from current Cosmic desktop image, fully 
updated

-> Keyboard backlight should come on or change but doesn't.  The gnome-
shell pop-up icon for the keyboard backlight appears for both keys, but
the icon's "progress" bar is not visible.

Kernel version is linux-image-4.17.0-9-generic

This is the same in X and Wayland session. In case it matters, Nvidia
binary drivers are installed but Nvidia is switched off via Prime
setting in nvidia-settings. Running with Intel drivers

The keyboard backlight works perfectly when booting from the 18.04.1
desktop live image. When turning on light with 18.04.1, it is off again
after rebooting into 18.10. (However 18.04.1 seems to freeze when
shutting down from menu, I have to hard-shut it off).

Most other important Fn+Fx special keys on this laptop work (display 
brightness, touchpad off, sound) except for the airplane mode key. However the 
airplane mode key only fails in gnome-shell but works on the console (this is 
filed as https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1791367)
(Not working are a key that seems to mean "display off" and another of unclear 
purpose that never worked on any laptop I ever saw, maybe "presentation mode" 
as it seems to depict a flip chart or projection screen).
