Video of the text preview reverting to a "default" when changing paragraph properties

SUMMARY
When editing/adding a Style Preset in the Text Properties docker you get a nifty preview in the top left of the dialog. If you change the Style Type to 'Paragraph' and try to make changes to the paragraph, the font properties will unset to some kind of default font and color. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a new document
2. Open the Text Properties docker and switch to the Preset tab. 
3. Chose to add a Style Preset in the bottom right.
4. Set the Style Type to 'Paragraph' 
5. Modify any of the properties of the paragraph (font size, font family, text align)

The preview will get "unset" and not actually preview the appearance of the text.

This was tested with Qt Platform Name:  "wayland". 
Attached is a video recording of the bug, along with additional system info.
