did you set the 

    base[ACTIVE] = {  }
    base[NORMAL] = {  }
    base[SELECTED] = {  }
    base[INSENSITIVE] = {  }

components to the style?

in GTK, when text is drawn in widgets like a GtkEntry, the background
uses the style's "base" color, not the "bg" color. this is documented
in the reference docs, in the section on RC files.
