It has been a while. There is a much newer kernel version in TW now. Does the issue still persist with that? It could be the case, since it looks like a problem with BIOS or ACPI.
In fact I have just recently also started seeing this issue on Tumbleweed It was still working about a week ago for me and now neither the xfce4-power-manager nor xbacklight are able to change screen brightness
# xbacklight -set 100 RANDR Query Version returned error -1
Using the method of writing to /sys with echo does work for me:
echo 378 > /sys/devices/pci0000\:00/0000\:00\:02.0/drm/card1/card1-eDP-1/intel_backlight/brightness
