The problem persists and became worse.

The dark/light mode does not switch correctly even when restarting LO.
In current version, switching to dark and than back to light mode, even when restarting, leaves the canvas black. Only the buttons and the rest of the interface, become light again.
 
This concerns Wirter, Calc and Impress. In dark mode, fonts that are explicitly black (not set on Automatic color), are no longer visible. 
In Impress, presenter notes are become invisible. Impossible to return to light mode. Setting importance to major, as this seriously impends work.
