FN Keyboard backlight keys not working?

Apologies if this is the wrong area to bring this up, but still.

I rarely use the RGB lights on my 2021 A15, but it was a novel feature and all the functions worked as should. Recently I was watching Netflix in the dark and went to turn on the backlight with the FN and UP keys to find it no longer works, what is going on?

I went to the ASUS site and updated all drivers, updated windows frameworks again, no luck. I have just reset the laptop and all it has done is screwed over all my settings and programs cause the keys still don't work. I can change the pattern, IE strobe, breathing.. yada yada... but I cannot alter the brightness. I can do it manually through Armoury Crate, but I would like the use of the shortcut keys.

Welcome to Asus Rog Laptop world and TUF Laptops, this is absolutely normal my friend try to use AURA RGB maybe you are luck... Good Luck

I don't mean to be rude, but it isn't normal, it worked before and now has suddenly stopped.
If this is "standard" ASUS problems, this may be the last device of theirs I get. It's a simple enough thing to get right, if they already had it working.
Troubleshooting on the web shows a few of their laptops do this, but tbh it's really poor software management if I can change the lighting type still yet not the brightness.
