I have installed a Qt6 app build with Kirigami from Flathub. Specifically I use EasyEffects. I really like that Kirigami apps seem to be able adapt to the Gnome dark theme preference. It would be great if they used the system icon pack instead of Breeze too. I know that Flatpak apps are a bit isolated so they need a little bit of help, but I haven't been able to make EasyEffect use the same icons I have set as preferred (MoreWaita).

What I have already tried:

flatpak override --user --filesystem=~/.local/share/icons
sudo flatpak override --filesystem=xdg-data/icons:ro
sudo flatpak override --filesystem=$HOME/.icons:ro
sudo flatpak override --env=ICON_THEME=MoreWaita
flatpak override --user --env=QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=gtk3 com.github.wwmm.easyeffects

None of this seems to work.

I also use a lot of LibAdwaita apps installed via Flatpak and they seem to able to follow the system icon theme just fine, so perhaps this isn't a Flatpak isolation problem? I thought the the system icon theme preference is somewhat unified across desktops?
