The fix for this issue is to change the keyboard scan codes in the asus-
keyboard-backlight-down and asus-keyboard-backlight-up scripts located
at /etc/acpi/events/  from:

event=hotkey ATKD 000000c5
event=hotkey ATKD 000000c4

To:

event=hotkey ATK0100:00 000000c5
event=hotkey ATK0100:00 000000c4

In there respective scripts.

And restart the acpi server,

sudo service acpid restart

I used acpi_listen to find the correct codes.

All thanks and credit goes to TOZ over at forum.xfce.org

Someone here needs to place this fix into the upstream.
