Public bug reported:
Summary
On Honor MagicBook BRN-FXXC (Intel i5-13420H, Ubuntu 24.04, kernel
6.14.0-33-generic), the screen brightness randomly flickers or changes on its
own.
This happens even when no keys are pressed and no auto-brightness sensor is
present.
The issue disappears completely if the process gsd-media-keys is stopped or
disabled.
Therefore, the daemon appears to react to phantom ACPI brightness events coming
from the laptop’s Embedded Controller (EC).
Steps to reproduce
Boot Ubuntu 24.04 on Honor BRN-FXXC (Intel UHD Graphics, i5-13420H).
Observe that the screen occasionally dims or brightens without user
input.
Run:
killall gsd-media-keys
→ Brightness instantly stabilizes.
Restart gsd-media-keys:
/usr/libexec/gsd-media-keys &
→ Random brightness changes return within a few minutes.
Expected result
Brightness should remain constant unless the user changes it manually or
through the system menu.
Actual result
Brightness fluctuates on its own.
Fan-increasing events can also block keyboard input momentarily.
Killing gsd-media-keys permanently stops the behavior.
Hardware details
Laptop: Honor MagicBook / BRN-FXXC
CPU: Intel Core i5-13420H (Alder Lake-P)
GPU: Intel UHD Graphics (Alder Lake-P GT1)
Display: eDP-1
Kernel: 6.14.0-33-generic
OS: Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (GNOME 46)
Backlight interface: /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight
(max_brightness = 96000)
Diagnostics
evtest shows no brightness key events when flicker happens.
grep gpe6E /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/* shows rapidly increasing
counter, suggesting EC GPE spam.
Fanthom events are not visible in /dev/input/event*, implying they
originate from ACPI EC.
No ambient-light sensor is present.
Disabling gsd-media-keys immediately stabilizes brightness.
Workarounds tested
Method Effect
acpi_backlight=none Completely stable, but brightness fixed and too low
intel_hid.ignore_special_keys=1 No effect
blacklist video, acpi_video Stops flicker but removes backlight control
chmod 444 /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness Stable, no
adjustment possible
Disable gsd-media-keys ✅ 100% stable and user brightness control preserved
Conclusion
gsd-media-keys reacts to phantom ACPI brightness events generated by Honor’s EC
firmware.
This appears to be a user-space issue rather than kernel, because the problem
vanishes as soon as gsd-media-keys is stopped.
The system remains perfectly stable and usable with all other GNOME
services active.

Additional note:
Other users with Honor MagicBook 14 2023 and similar Intel 13th Gen hardware
report identical behavior on Ubuntu 24.04 and Fedora 39.
It may be a family-wide firmware quirk that could be mitigated in
gnome-settings-daemon by ignoring repeated brightness events without matching
keycodes.

Additional note:
Other users with Honor MagicBook 14 2023 and similar Intel 13th Gen hardware
report identical behavior on Ubuntu 24.04 and Fedora 39.
It may be a family-wide firmware quirk that could be mitigated in
gnome-settings-daemon by ignoring repeated brightness events without matching
keycodes.
