Aditional information

I've had the exact same issue with lualine + nord.nvim for the better part of this year. No indication as to what causes it either.

to be precise: lualine sets the statusline sections correctlyy, but does not enabe highlight groups.,

re-running the setup function sets the highlight groups correctly., ,until next restart of neovim.

duplicate: there are way too many duplicates of this issue.

It enables highlight groups but your colorscheme removes them and doesn't even emit conventional event so other plugins get notified and syncronize.

Basically here you need to make sure your colorscheme gets loaded and applied before you call lualines setup not the other way around.

Any ideas why things are still messed up when I do (and always have) define the color scheme before lualine in my packer setup? Packer compilation moving things around?

[yavorski]

You can try with packer after hook setup

use {
  "nvim-lualine/lualine.nvim", -- statusline plugin
  after = "zephyr-nvim", -- init after color scheme in order to prevent any overrides
  ...
}
