This problem has been happening for 1 week.
yes this is because it detaches the link between variables and styles. the components are using the styles, but the styles no longer are linked to the variables which prevents the color modes, dark and light etc. to function. Ive also reported this bug.
If you notice that before you create a theme with the theme builder the color styles and variables are linked to each other. allowing them to work together and gives you the functionality of color modes. but after you create a theme that no longer works.
true, i think this issue started when Figma integrated the Material as inbuilt UI kit. Before this, all components directly used variables so had no issues when theme got updated.
