Seeing the same thing on beta 7 - FB13041954. I have a sample project in this feedback that demonstrates the issue.

@Gong I'm seeing the background and text change properly, but @Environment(\.colorScheme) var colorScheme is always returning light, are you seeing the same?

@alex_taffe Hi:) In my app the value of @Environment(\.colorScheme) is correct. The system renders the live activity widget both in light and dark scheme since iOS 17.1 beta 2.
