Same on a HP 2510p (intermittently, possibly timing-dependent). Matthew Garrett tells me that "you can work around it by adding a script to /etc/acpi/suspend.d that saves the value in /sys/class/backlight/whatever/brightness and one in resume.d that writes it back (do this after the video reinit stuff but before 65-console.sh)". Presumably it would be harmless to add such a script to the package to catch the various cases where this doesn't happen automatically.
