 Ok, no problem here: these are expected and normal.

 Ok, so IIUC the icons are not missing when gnome-theme-manager is
 running because it overrides your icon theme, but they are missing when
 it's not running because Gtk uses the default theme.  Do you have
 hicolor-icon-theme and gnome-icon-theme installed?

 It doesn't matter, use what you prefer as long as the bug and the
 interested parties receive the information.
