Bug description

Icons in the sidebar do not show up as they should, and end up being default folder icons. Specifically this is happening when directory like Documents, Videos, Downloads, Pictures, etc, are moved to another storage from the standard usual home directory. In my case, /mnt/storage/psi-jack/

, and I have xdg's user-dirs.dirs setup for XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR, and equivalent directories also setup with "/mnt/storage/psi-jack/".

The funny thing is, this starts working, consistently, on any time the second load of Nemo happens. So If I load Nemo for the first time, default icons show up, open a new one, proper icons show up fine.

Steps to reproduce

Move/Symlink Documents, Music, Picture, Public, Videos, and/or Downloads to another path. Set folder icon to folder- appropriate. Remove/Replace Sidebar item with new directory entry. Close Nemo, and re-open.

Expected behavior

Icons show up in sidebar representing their defined icons.

Nemo 6.2.8 - same problem. There is also a moment (at least for me): if the trash is not empty (icon is fully white on the sidebar) then the icons load correctly.
