Can you explain that a little further please.

As installed (digikam 0.9.2 on Fedora) if I click on any image's "Set
as Album thumbnail" they *only* work with the Sidebar Thumbnail Size
set to 22x22 or larger.  With the Sidebar Thumbnail Size set to 16x16
I just get the default folder icon in the left album tree.

What's an "icon theme"?  I don't run KDE but have the KDE libraries.
