It may be a bug in the driver. If the driver doesn't reset its backlight
value on suspend/resume, xbacklight will read a wrong value from it, and
thus do nothing if the set the same value.

Did you actually ever observe the bug when not resuming from suspend?

Which driver do you use? Can you try the latest driver from experimental
and a recent kernel?
