The problem was that nvim-web-devicons resets its highlights using an autocmd on ColorScheme, just to make sure that nothing weird happens to the highlight groups it defines as a result of e.g. :highlight clear when switching colorschemes. Our ColorScheme event was running too soon (i.e. before the devicons event) and as such the icons were all "cleared" upon calling :colorscheme.
