Bug description
Opening Nemo through other programs will randomly break icons on the sidebar, turning them into default folder icons.
Steps to reproduce
Open Nemo through Firefox or another program. It seems to be random, so try again if it doesn't work the first time.
Expected behavior
Sidebar icons should be the same as opening Nemo regularly.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue by opening Nemo through Firefox or another program on Mint 22.1, retrying because the failure is random. Compare the sidebar with a regular Nemo launch and trace the desktop launch path until the icon difference is isolated. Done means sidebar icons remain correct when Nemo is opened externally.
