It was caused by the Match Margin feature of the Productivity Power Tools extension. I couldn't find a way to change the background color used for highlighting, so I just turned off the feature.
Visual Studio Reference Highlighting Won't Disable

I have disabled Reference Highlighting in Visual Studio 2013 for C# code using the instructions here: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/zainnab/archive/2013/07/18/visual-studio-2013-reference-highlighting.aspx. Yet, I still see references highlighted.
The font-color combination being used does not match the font-color setting for Highlighted Reference -- the setting is green background with off-white text, and highlighted references appear as white background with off-white text. Also, the reference navigation does not work (as expected) -- pressing CTRL+SHIFT+DOWN/UP does not do anything, indicating the highlighted references feature is turned off.
How can I stop the references from being highlighted?
