How to change the theme of Snap Apps?

I am enjoying the new "snap" applications, but apps installed using this method doesn't seem to be using the system gtk theme I have set.
Some use Adwaita or worse, Raleigh.
How can I have them use the standard Ambience theme I'm using across the whole system?

Very good point. I don't think that's possible right now but certainly hope that provision will be made for some sort of customization in the future.

The issue is being tracked here: themes currently don't work with snaps yet.

I replaced the snap packages with the apt packages.
snap list
I do the following replacement:
sudo snap remove gnome-calculator gnome-characters gnome-system-monitor gnome-logs
sudo apt install gnome-calculator gnome-characters gnome-system-monitor gnome-logs
Now the theme defined in tweak applied to these apps.
