Hi Adam. I've had similar trouble with pitivi.
One quick and dirty way is to run strace and see that it looks in
~/.icons and ~/.local/icons etc.. You can then copy the icons found in
/nix/store/*-glade*/share/glade3/pixmaps/hicolor/* into one of those
locations.  ( ~/.local/share/icons/hicolor ) and try again.

I've posted to the gtk mailinglist. Hopefully we find a better way to do
this in the future.

Good luck
