Android Central Question

As the title says, since the patch a few days ago (which is otherwise great) my auto brightness keeps turning on.

I had 4 instances within 12 minutes this morning, 2-3 instances last night. These instances were all using chrome, but I cannot rule out other apps may show this behavior. I can't find the exact repro trigger, but it seems to repro when I have left a page and return to it (eg. Reddit.com hyper link to imgur, bug happens upon return, using the phone's back button).

I may have had other repro's of the bug, possibly with other apps like games but I didn't notice the behavior until now.

My phone: S9
Build number: PPR1.180610.011.G965USQU3CSAB

If a Dev or anyone needs more info, please tell me. This is ruining night time and early morning use of my phone.
