Interesting. Try the following snippet in your project file.

{
    "syntax_override": {
        "\\.html$": [ "Craft-Twig", "Syntaxes", "HTML (Twig)" ]
    }
}

I've only just seen your response, apologies!
Just tried this out and it works like a charm, thank you!

Thanks for keeping this gist alive!

I was getting an error with @reywood's snippet, this one worked for me:

{
    "folders":
    [
        {
            "follow_symlinks": true,
            "path": "/Users/viget/Projects/ccusa"
        }
    ],
    "syntax_override":
    {
        "\\.html$": ["Craft-Twig", "Syntaxes", "Craft-Twig"]
    }
}
