I can't really analyze your problem but this is what I know (and do):

- I prefer the "KDE Classic Icon Theme" but not some of it's icons (the 
network icon for instance). So I created my own theme by copying the few 
icons I wanted from one theme to the other.

- So, everytime I install TDE somewhere, I need to transport my Icon set. 
Which is actually very easy:

copy the (modified) directory from /opt/trinity/share/icons  (so it would be 
the Crystalsvg directory for you) to /some/backup/location. In my case it's 
on a nfs share.

after a new install, use konqueror as filemanager (super user mode) to copy 
that directory in /opt/trinity/share/icons

select the correct icon theme in trinity control center.

Never has any trouble.

So if I were at you place, I'd delete everything in /opt/trinity/share/icons, 
copy back the icon directories (I can let you grab a copy) and that should do 
the trick.
