IOS 6 Auto-Brightness Flakiness

Has anyone else noticed the auto-brightness seems to not work as well in IOS 6?  In my experience with and iPad 1 and current use of an iPad 3, auto-brightness always seemed to work perfectly.  One of the few flaws in my otherwise great Samsung Focus S Windows Phone is the auto-brightness never seems to be quite right for my over 40 eyes.  The iPad has always been stellar, never seeming too bright or too dim.

However, after I updated the iPad 3 to IOS 6 my screen brightness seems to be too bright most of the time and won’t stay down when I “fix” it. IOS has a neat feature that lets you adjust a baseline brightness and it auto-adjusts from there.  Now it seems to reset my baseline every time the iPad sleeps.  Has anyone else noticed this?
