Modal windows white despite using dark theme

Hi, I'm using Arch Linux Cinnamon 5.2.7 with LTS kernel.
This morning, after the last updates I realized that the modal windows of some applications (Save as, etc etc) are white despite using a dark theme (Fluent Dark). Before the updates everything was okay.
This issue is not present in all applications, for example if I save a document in LibreOffice the Save as window is dark, in Brave Browser or Telegram Desktop, the modal window Save As is white.
In this last update I noticed that there were updates related to gnome applications. Furthermore, app like baobab or gnome calculator has a totally different look, not respect dark theme while I remember they used to respect the dark gtk theme (libadwaita????).
How is it possible? How can I fix this issue?

Re: Modal windows white despite using dark theme

Is the issue present using a recently updated theme like arc-gtk-theme from the community repo?
Have you tried the git version of the fluent theme?

Re: Modal windows white despite using dark theme

Hi dogknowsnx, tried to install community arc-gtk-theme, same problem. Brave Browser or Telegram Desktop give me a "Save As" modal window white, not like gtk dark theme.
