Same problem on an Asus UX331U. In Ubuntu 18.04 setting kbd backlight
worked, it's broken in Ubuntu 18.10.

Oct  1 17:43:19 avis gsd-power[2143]:
gsd_power_backlight_abs_to_percentage: assertion 'max > min' failed

i am able to manually control the backlight on the shell using
sudo tee /sys/class/leds/asus\:\:kbd_backlight/brightness <<< 3

(replace 3 with [0..3] for brightness levels)
