VsCode Dart code highlighting wrong colors

Question

I have a very strange issue. After upgrading Flutter yesterday to the newest version, my syntax highlighting is awfully off. When I open a file, everything seems fine, but as soon as the file is analyzed and the result is used for highlighting, everything breaks.

Correct (for 1-2 seconds after opening the file):

Wrong (after around 2 seconds):

I am using the Monokai Theme for VsCode. I would love to get my old coloring back, as I think the new scheme is outrageously difficult to look at.
