Theme is not highlighting as expected

[tugh]

Highlighting is different from the example in README.md in my setup.

I'm using code v1.71.2-1 on Arch.

Installed plugins are just calva(v2.0.304) and alabaster-theme(v0.2.9). Also note that, the embedded clojure extension that comes with vs code is disabled.

This is my user settings for vs code:

{
    "editor.fontLigatures": true,
    "editor.fontFamily": "'Fira Code', 'monospace', monospace, 'Droid Sans Fallback'",
    "workbench.tips.enabled": false,
    "editor.minimap.enabled": false,
    "calva.prettyPrintingOptions": {
        "enabled": false,
        "printEngine": "pprint",
        "width": 120,
        "maxLength": 50
    },
    "clojure.trace.server": "verbose",
    "editor.lineHeight": 26,
    "editor.fontWeight": 400,
    "editor.rulers": [
        80
    ],
    "calva.showDocstringInParameterHelp": true,
    "editor.fontSize": 16,
    "calva.evalOnSave": true,
    "calva.testOnSave": true,
    "calva.showCalvaSaysOnStart": false,
    "calva.evaluationSendCodeToOutputWindow": true,
    "json.maxItemsComputed": 10000000,
    "calva.useTestExplorer": true,
    "calva.paredit.defaultKeyMap": "strict",
    "workbench.editor.enablePreview": false,
    "workbench.activityBar.visible": false,
    "calva.highlight.enableBracketColors": false,

    // Bracket-pair colorization
    "editor.bracketPairColorization.enabled": false, 

    // Bracket-pair guides
    "editor.guides.bracketPairsHorizontal": false,
    "editor.guides.highlightActiveBracketPair": false,

    // Indentation guides
    "editor.guides.indentation": false,
    "editor.guides.highlightActiveIndentation": false,
    "workbench.colorTheme": "Alabaster"
}

And this is the highlighting I get:

vs the example in readme for easier comparison:

Is anyone else having this issue? Might this be related to some mismatching versions?

I'm getting the same highlighting as you are. It looks really bad on a real file:

Please don't mind the code. I'm still learning Clojure.

Information:
VS Code 1.78.2
Alabaster 0.2.9
Calva 2.0.364
