Most likely the problem is that the face property of your overlay's
after-string is merged with the face property of the buffer text.
I expect that the overlay string's face takes precedence, so if you make
the face inherit from the `default' face, none of the bufer text's face
attributes will "show through".

BTW has anyone tried to re-implement setnu using the `margin' rather than
after-strings?
