The Debian package seems to be patched to make Audacity work properly with
dark themes (thanks very much!).

Oddly, the Tracks>Spectrograms panel of Preferences still does not work in
this regard: the background comes up white with white text on my
Adwaita-dark–themed GNOME desktop. To be clear, all the other Preferences
panels come up as desired, with dark coloring.

Hello,

I have the same issue, white text on white background, except more extensive;
it's not only the Tracks>Spectrograms panel of Preferences, it's all the other
Preferences panels as well.

I have tried various dark gtk themes with no success.

It apparently has been confirmed on Solus 3, Ubuntu 18.04, and Mint 19 as well
(see https://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=98471) so, upstream
issue?
