title: Toast background color being changed
body: <p>I am working on a project and set the background of the application to white by doing the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;!-- Application theme. --&gt;
  &lt;style name="AppTheme" parent="AppBaseTheme"&gt;
      &lt;!-- All customizations that are NOT specific to a particular API-level can go here. --&gt;
      &lt;item name="android:actionBarStyle"&gt;@style/MyActionBar&lt;/item&gt;
      &lt;item name="android:actionBarSize"&gt;140dp&lt;/item&gt;
      &lt;item name="android:background"&gt;#ffffff&lt;/item&gt;
  &lt;/style&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This works a charm however the problem is that the toast messages are now being displayed with a white background. The strange thing is that I integrated a splash screen into the project and when the user logs in the toast message is displayed normally.</p>
  
  <p>It is really strange and would appreciate any help on the issue. </p>
  
  <p>EDIT: ADDED SCREENSHOT SHOWING ISSUE. The screenshot is taken just as the initial toast (with unwanted effect) is fading out and the new one (with default) is fading in.</p>
