[Bug 840707] [NEW] screen brightness adjustment keys incorrectly reset brightness to 100% after login

[Rocko]

Public bug reported:

I have screen brightness set to about 30% in gnome-control-center's
Screen app.

After I first login, the first time I press a brightness adjustment key,
brightness is reset to 100%.

Subsequent adjustments work correctly. It appears that the adjustment
script is not reading the correct setting the first time, but stores it
for subsequent adjustment events.
