Identical checkboxes for different states

SUMMARY

Default theme on Windows 11 has unusable checkboxes.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open KDE Connect
2. Select application settings
3. The displayed "Backends" have checkboxes - attempt to change the state of either

OBSERVED RESULT
The checkbox looks the same

EXPECTED RESULT
The checkbox should be visibly different

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Connect: 25.11.80
Windows 11 Version 25H2
KDE Frameworks: 6.19.0
Qt: Using 6.9.2 and built against 6.9.2
Build ABI: x86_64-little_endian-llp64
Kernel: winnt 10.0.26200

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Attached screenshot of Bluetooth _dis_abled and Network _en_abled.

Note that popping up the Start menu shades the window and the two states are visible.

I don't think this is a Qt bug because Jamulus doesn't have the same issue (Qt 6.9.1, admittedly).

I don't think it's a Windows theme bug for the same reason.

It could be the choice of KDE theme for the Windows 11 build.

Second screenshot shows state when the Windows Start menu is popped open - i.e. the application is shaded.
