In 12.04 LTS I don't use brightness-applet anymore and the Fn+F7/F8 is working as expected, so I think this issue could be closed.

The only way to change the LCD brightness of my HP 6735s notebook is to scroll the mouse wheel over the brightness symbol. The expanded gauge do not work and any click over the + and - sign or the dial bar closes the gauge. The notebook key Fn+brightnessUP and DOWN not respond either... Sometimes when clicking the brightness symbol the gauge jumps to the upper-left corner of the screen too. I will comment this issue in that bug report. regards.
