Thank you for the quick response DB Tech, but that did not work. I managed to fix it by doing the following to vbulletin.css on my custom style.

.textcontrols a,
a.textcontrol {
	position:relative;
	padding: 3px {vb:math {vb:stylevar padding}/2};
	font: {vb:stylevar control_font};
	line-height: {vb:stylevar line_height};
	text-decoration:none;
	border: {vb:stylevar control_border};
	color: {vb:stylevar control_color};
/*
	background:{vb:stylevar control_background};
*/
	-moz-border-radius:{vb:stylevar popupmenu_border_radius};
	-webkit-border-radius:{vb:stylevar popupmenu_border_radius};
	border-radius:{vb:stylevar popupmenu_border_radius};
}

And also for the hover part which also forces that stupid white background on the button, here:

.textcontrols a:hover,
a:hover.textcontrol {

/*	
background:{vb:stylevar control_hover_background};
*/
	text-decoration:none;
	color: {vb:stylevar control_hover_color};
}

That seems to fix it. I simply commented out the part that introduces the background
