Please forgive if filed for wrong package. Problem occurs in X and
Wayland sessions but not on console, so does not seem to be kernel.

Repro on Asus UX561UD with Ubuntu 18.10 up to date:
1. Log into Gnome X or Gnome Wayland session
2. Press Fn+F2 which is the airplane mode key

-> Airplane mode should turn on but nothing happens

3. Switch to console with Ctrl+Alt+F3
4. Log into console
5. Press Fn+F2 again
6. Switch back to GUI session with Ctrl+Alt+F2

-> Airplane mode is on, icon appeared in Gnome task bar

Same for turning it off.

This laptop seems not the only one with this problem. I got the idea of trying 
the console trick from ArenaL5's answer on Askubuntu, but unfortunately there 
is no solution there:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/972367/airplane-mode-switch-does-not-respond

Please let me know whatever I can do to help debug this.

All other Fn+Fx special keys on this laptop work (display brightness,
touchpad off, sound etc.) except for keyboard backlight, but that works
with Ubuntu 18.04.1 and I will file a separate bug for this
