I believe this is caused by a bug when using the default themes and AlertDialog.Builder.

You should be able to work around it by copying the android.R.layout.simple_list_item_single_choice layout xml out of the platform and creating a local layout file with the android:textColor properties overridden to something other than themed text color attributes.
