I'm not aware of anything I'm doing to drop it down — I turn pages usually with a tap, not a swipe, and either the light is at its usual intensity when I manually put the device to sleep, or I fall asleep and the device puts itself to bed. Either way, there aren't any movements that, as far as I can tell, could be interpreted as a downward left-side swipe. Besides, each time it awakes at the same setting of 2%. You'd think, if this were happening accidentally, that figure would vary.
I've also noticed that the increase of light when you ramp it up isn't on even increments -- around 28%, it suddenly leaps to a considerably brighter level. I don't remember having seen that happen under previous firmware, and my impression is that it's new behaviour.
But for the light intensity slider, I wish there was a way to turn it off. I'd prefer it, when Kobo implements optional behaviour like this, that there would also be a way to disable it.

It's always been that way for me - I'm still at 3.3.1? Don't remember exactly which. December or January. Also skips 29% altogether. But yeah - I was kinda perturbed by the jump in brightness as there'd been situations where I'd wanted a level in between...
