This might be obvious, but did you have the icons displayed at 32x32 when
you tried? It might only resize larger images to smaller views. The default
view on my system seems to be 48x48.

The icon theme spec suggests that 'icon name' doesn't include the path or
the extension, though I see it also says "minimally you should install a
48x48 icon..."

I'd say not yet - I don't think we're confident that there really is a bug,
rather than just a config issue.

Not that I know of, sorry.
