display problems screenshot

SUMMARY
On our KDE Plasma 5 (KDEP5) personal computers (PCs) icons no longer display on
toolbars nor for preset/'places' (just custom) Dolphin
entries/files/directories/folders--see screenshot--and a Konsole display
problem (you can see but I should report separately next) is cursor & selection
are offset from actual text location.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Run standard programs like Konsole, Dolphin, KATE.
2. Edit toolbars to set 'text under icons' (or any icons).
3. Look for error/missing display aspects.

OBSERVED RESULT
There are no icons (screenshot Dolphin directory/folder shown is symbolic link
to user-owned /user/share/doc normally showing all as directory/folder icons)
with exception of Dolphin custom-icon entries/files/directories/folders.  You
can also see on Konsole (I don't use toolbars but tested and no longer have
icons) a display problem is cursor & selection are offset from actual text
position... in screenshot Konsole I didn't press spaces, but initially and when
I type, cursor is at least a tab's length past actual text location, and when I
select text, highlighted range is similarly offset (confusing/impossible to
copy correctly).  All this persists on updates & reboots, though
seemingly-universal display problem is no standard icons; I should report
Konsole text display problem separately.

EXPECTED RESULT
Display normally (icons).

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
UNIX/GNU/Linux/KDE Plasma: GNU/Linux Mint 21.3 (XFCE variant)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.7
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.92.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3

HARDWARE
SSD: OS (after KDE Neon 6, quick-formatted for GNU/Linux Mint 21.3)
HDD: /home (kept from KDE Neon 6 but deleted KDE configuration)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
We had KDE Neon 6 which critically broke on 2/3 our family PCs (one unusable)
and someone on Libera IRC #kde said Neon is 'almost rolling release' so we
switched back to Mint with same /home hard disc drives (HDDs).  I deleted
~/.kde , KDE files/directories/folders in ~/.config , ~/.local/share , and was
extremely thorough (think I got all not starting with k)--deleted much I didn't
need to--only stuff I know is left.
        We prefer Oxygen (detailed desktop-oriented) over Breeze
(over-simple/-dull pad/tab(let)-oriented) and use other themes (GTK Clearlooks*
& Greybird*) for specific settings (colours, icons/widgets) so don't know
avoiding Breeze has to do with this... where Breeze is better for things (like
newer startup/loading screen style) we occasionally use it.
        There's a small chance I missed deleting some configuration and--since
reinstall apparently 'quick formatted'--small chance some package/theme data
was leftover on OS' solid state drives (SSD)... wondering if we need to zero
SSDs or delete more configuration...
