This sounds like something you should get a support call logged on.
While Rob would certainly know better than I when a support call is
required, there might be a simpler explanation. You haven't said very
much about how you created the textured geode... do the GeoSets
actually have color attributes? If not, they are "inheriting" some
random color from the rest of the scene, whereas when you displayed
the geode alone white was be the default color if you didn't set a
color via a pfMaterial.
