When I use a Basic ( or most any) paint brush in Aphoto and draw a  true black line, it is semi-transparent.  And ifn I draw over it the line it darkens when they intersect.   Even with Opacity, Flow, and Hardness set to 100%.  Why is that?  Of course, it does not happen with Pixel, but why with Paint Brush?

check "accumulation" in the brush setting . Click on "more" next to hardness > click reset 
If that's not the fix then it's something just as simple . Must admit brushes and the number of them still confuse me so I limit most basic round --- just like Lr5 has which is   better as it is also a smart brush --- hint hint Affinity ;) :)

Check that Wet Edges in the same context toolbar is not ticked or else you will encounter what you have described

I'm having the same issue but wet edges did not fix it for me

I'm afraid that without any additional information (for example full-application screenshot, video - description of how to use the brush, ...), no one will be able to help you.

I've struggled with this issue for a while.

Amazingly, it turned out the "Blend Mode" had been turned to something other than "Normal," and because it was on the far right side of the contextual brush tool bar, I didn't even see it. Darrp! 

Yes; a simple fix, and a facepalm once I figured it out.
