Can reproduce.

This is probably really easy to fix; likely just changing the name of the icon used in https://invent.kde.org/network/kdeconnect-kde/-/blob/master/plasmoid/package/contents/ui/DeviceDelegate.qml?ref_type=heads#L332.

Wanna try your hand at fixing it?

Hmm, I'm not super familiar with the development process, but I made a MR here let me know if it's right
