Try my example:
Nothing gets me:
White background, Black text
Only (setq default-frame-alist '((background-color . "#333333") (foreground-color . "White") (cursor-color . "White"))) gets
White background, White text
Both:
Green background, White text
I find it asymmetric that with only default-frame-alist changes foreground, but not background nor cursor
