As already suggested, the workaround is to:
a) define a theme for icons:
Settings/Look/Application Theme/Icons
Select different themes from there until you find something that provides
icons to your liking.

Create a file under ~/.local/share/applications/<name>.desktop with your
preferred icon and path to the application, or point to your icon of choice
under /usr/share/icons/
