`unspecified' does just what it says, i.e. leaves the default frame
value untouched.  If you want to change the default for new frames,
you can set the value of this attribute to nil.  So this should work
just fine:

    (set-face-attribute 'completions-first-difference nil :inherit nil)
                                                                   ===
