Bug Description

Description: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
Release: 22.04
gnome-tweaks:
  Installed: 42~beta-1ubuntu1
  Candidate: 42~beta-1ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 42~beta-1ubuntu1 500

Tried to change my wallpaper with tweaks. No change. Upon further inspection in dconf-editor there are 2 keys for backgrounds under /org/gnome/desktop/background

picture-uri
picture-uri-dark

Apparently the tweaks doesn't have any effect on the picture-uri-dark. The first one was changed to my selection. Changing picture-uri-dark manually worked and I have my wallpaper selection active.

This will be fixed in Ubuntu 24.04 LTS available later this year by providing a "dark" background chooser also.
