wireshark opened with kdesu

I have dark theme with proper icon dark-theme
But when I launch wireshark with kdesu the app colors are dark and the icons are white-theme (dark icons)
If I launch wireshark with sudo the app colors are white and the icons are white-theme
and without root at all, wireshark is dark with dark theme icons

the version of wireshark that I test are 3.6.8 (qt5) and 4.0 (qt6)

This is not a kdesu bug. You are running a program under a different user account, which has none of your appearance settings configured.

Furthermore, you don't need to and should not run Wireshark as root. See https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/wireshark#Capturing_privileges

so, why with sudo everything is white and with kdesu the ui is dark and the icons white-theme?
