[BUG] Theme mode randomly changes to light mode
Submission checklist
- I have searched existing issues and confirmed this is not a duplicate.
- I am using the latest available version of Noctalia.
Bug description
At seemingly random times, my theme mode changes to light mode.
My theme mode was set to
Dark& it seems like it jumps back toAutowhen the theme changes.Seen another thread on Discord about theme mode issues after suspend (#3729), so I'll mention that I've a Nvidia GPU and it already suspended and woke up a couple times today (in case this is relevant). Update: The next day, the PC didn't suspend at all & the change happened nonetheless.
This happened at least 3 to 4 times now - but only once a day. last time it was ~8pm local time, yesterday it was round about ~5:13pm, today it happened ~5:20pm.
I looked if there's any other setting for auto switching themes but it appears like Theme mode = Auto is the only one. And even then, it shouldn't switch to light theme in the evening.
Steps to reproduce
Can't say for others, but for me:
- Set
theme modetoDark - Wait until it automatically changes to
automode andlighttheme again
Expected behavior
No random switch to Auto theme mode from Dark mode.
Actual behavior
Switches seemingly random (tends to be in the evening)
