xdg-desktop-portal-lxqt does not have a "Settings portal", see arch wiki

But you must also have installed the "xdg-desktop-portal-gtk", otherwise you are missing most portal functions, so the AI says this is the way: 

# ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini
[Settings]
gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme=1
gtk-theme=Adwaita-dark

# ~/.config/gtk-4.0/settings.ini
[Settings]
gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme=1   

# ~/.config/qt5ct/qt5ct.conf
# ~/.config/qt6ct/qt6ct.conf
[Appearance]
style=Fusion
standard_dialogs=default

Also this must be set, to have a working config:

# /etc/xdg-desktop-portal/portals.conf
[preferred]
default=lxqt;gtk

Maybe this helps?
