This is indeed board specific. I know many other laptops of the
Zenbook line need something similar and if you look at
drivers/platform/x86/asus-wmi.c or any other asus-* driver you'll
find several quirks to enable various features.
Kiernan, check commit aca234f6378864d85514be558746c0ea6eabfa8e
("asus-wmi: provide access to ALS control") in particular.
