### Bug description

I hardly cannot read anything because background color is dark and text is black. The background color hasn't switched back to a light color when switching from dark mode to light mode. Text color switches when changing from dark to ligth as it should.
This bug could be connected to this bug: https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop/issues/7792

### Steps to reproduce

1. Enable dark mode
2. Enable light mode
3. Most background colors are still dark, Some text color are also still white (which is acceptable in combination with black background color) but most text is black.
4. Only logout/login or reboot helps.

### Expected behavior

Background color should switch to a light color when re-activating light mode.
