Interestingly the colors of list-colors-display remain intact (except
for the modeline). list-faces-display however shows the problem.
Here are some screenshots with the M-x list-faces-display buffer from an
emacs-client -t frame on a 256 color terminal before and after running
clear-face-cache in the X11 frame.

Note that some colors are retained, for example the background of
tty-menu-selected-face which is "red", a color that exists on 16 color
terminals too.

Yes, this. Calling clear-face-cache again, this time from the 256 color
TTY frame, fixes the TTY frames.

Yes, the second call only helps if it's done while the 256 color TTY
frame is the active one.

M-x redraw-display in the tty frame does not help.

I think it's deterministic but may have a couple of variations depending
on the state of my Emacs session or the terminal. I haven't figured
out

Yes, I see this with both 26 and master. I am fairly sure that this
wasn't happening about 2 years ago. Perhaps it started when I switched
from 25 to 26 but not sure. I am having trouble building an old enough
version on my current Linux system to verify but if we get stuck I will
find a way to build it and try to bisect.
