    There is a separate key for dark mode now for 22.04. You can read it here in vanadium's answer

    To set the wallpaper of the light mode:

    gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-uri ''

    To set the wallpaper of the dark mode:

    gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-uri-dark ''
