icons not rendering in addLegendAwesomeIcon()

I can't seem to get leaflegend to display icons used in AwesomeMarkers. There are open issues with certain Font Awesome icons and I've implemented the workaround at https://github.com/rstudio/leaflet/issues/691 for getting the icon to show on the map but I can't figure out how to make them show up in addLegendAwesomeMarkers(). I'm primarily an R user and know next to nothing about HTML/CSS. Is there something I can pass to addControl() in addLegendAwesomeMarkers(...) that can use the text representation of the icon?

Thanks!

Reprex:

library(shiny)
library(leaflet)
library(leaflegend)
library(fontawesome)

# dummy data
set.seed(123)
d <- tibble(lat=rnorm(2), lng=rnorm(2), col=c('gray','red')) 

iconList1 <- awesomeIconList(
  gray=makeAwesomeIcon(icon='fish', library='fa', markerColor = 'lightgray', iconColor = 'black'),
  red=makeAwesomeIcon(icon='fish', library='fa', markerColor='red', iconColor='black')
)

# no fish icon
d %>% 
  leaflet() %>% 
  addTiles() %>% 
  addAwesomeMarkers(icon=~iconList1[col]) %>% 
  addLegendAwesomeIcon(iconSet=iconList1)

# Shiny finds the icon in fa library
shiny::icon("fish",lib='font-awesome')

# Proposed solution at: https://github.com/rstudio/leaflet/issues/691 using text argument with fontawesome.
iconList2 <- awesomeIconList(
  gray=makeAwesomeIcon(icon='fish', library='fa', text=fontawesome::fa("fish"), markerColor = 'lightgray', iconColor = 'black'),
  red=makeAwesomeIcon(icon='fish', library='fa', text=fontawesome::fa("fish"), markerColor='red', iconColor='black')
)

# icon shows in marker but not legend
d %>% 
  leaflet() %>% 
  addTiles() %>% 
  addAwesomeMarkers(icon=~iconList2[col]) %>% 
  addLegendAwesomeIcon(iconSet=iconList2)
