Thanks for your update Olivier. I tried your suggestion but:
(a) this did not fix the icon issue
(b) the amended link failed with a Launch Error and a "failed to run..."
message - I will attach an image of the message as I could not copy its
text.

Title:
Desktop link for Progressive Web Apps incorrect
Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Since the change to a Snap package, PWA "add to homescreen" (A2HS)
does not seem to be working.
I am using Xubuntu 19.10
A link is created on the desktop with the app name, but the icon is a
generic one and clicking on the link just brings up a blank Chromium
page.
I tested it from my own PWA to start with, but to check it is a
generic problem I used the MDN PWA page:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-
US/docs/Web/Progressive_web_apps/Add_to_home_screen
which has a PWA demo app called "Awesome Fox Pictures". If you open
the live demo page:
https://mdn.github.io/pwa-examples/a2hs/
you should be able to add the app to your desktop, but this creates
the broken link I described.
