Yes, this is a pain, matching shapes & bitmaps. You may find that the #shape snaps to a slightly different hue than the #bitmap, when the monitor is set to 16-bits.
If we are talking about a one-color background shape, then I suggest making a 1-bit black bitmap instead. Then apply the desired color directly to the sprite. As for the snap looking darker in Photoshop - check your PS color settings. Either Color Management Off or Web Graphics default, is what I use. (sRGB, Gamma 2.2).
