I ran into the same issue but only had to pass the path to the icons used 
by asciidoc to the dblatex command through the --dblatex-opts using the "I" 
paramater and the path to the icons. 

Here is my full a2x command for pdf generation that uses the same 
admonition icons as the a2x --icons paramater does when outputing xhtml



a2x -v -f pdf --icons -D /cygdrive/c/Docs/Output/PDF --asciidoc-opts='-a 
lang=en -v -b docbook -d book' --dblatex-opts='-V -T db2latex -I 
/etc/asciidoc/images/icons' test.txt"

Just adding this in hopes that someone else might find it useful, not to 
correct any information. 

It would be great if a2x passed that option to dblatex when the --icons 
option is used.
