Comment:

 From my testing, this happens when saving theme-specific features (like
 `custom-background`) not supported by current theme (e.g. Carrington 2.2).

 Seems that the settings are saved on `admin_init`, which is after current
 theme mods (or a lack thereof) have been initialized on
 `after_setup_theme`.

 `WP_Customize_Setting::check_capabilities()` then returns false, and the
 new theme mods are not applied in `WP_Customize_Setting::save()`.
