It may be making adjustments to the background lighting. You can tape over the sensor located by the camera on top of the display.

I could find no small holes on my Mac, but I did find that somewhere in the speaker perforations were sensors. I taped both the photo lense area and both speaker areas. The keboard illumination continued tp fluctuate from off to bright. I opened the Mac in darkness, turned down the display brightness with the f1 key and turned up the keyboard brightness with the f10 key, removed the tape from everywhere, and the keyborad stayed bright.
