Viva Connections - Does not always load SharePoint homesite with correct theme/colour

When I load the SharePoint homesite in Teams using the Viva Connections icon, the page does not render with the theme/colour from my settings within SharePoint (ie I am using Green for the quick link buttons, but it shows as Blue). As this is on the homesite for the company, having the wrong branding is obviously an issue.

If I press the 'refresh' circle, the page reloads and corrects the theme/colour. This issue occurs on multiple browsers, using both Win/Mac and completely different computers. It also tends to occur the first time, or if I click another Teams app (like activity) and return.

Any ideas?

    @David Toews

    I can reproduce this issue in my viva connection. By design, after changing the theme color in the SharePoint home page, you should click "refresh" button in the viva connection to display newly changed theme color.
