I could not get the original code to work so I want to suggest the following code with three methods for getting the icons to work properly.

from PyQt6.QtWidgets import QApplication, QPushButton, QStyle
from PyQt6.QtGui import QIcon
from PyQt6.QtCore import QSize

import sys

app = QApplication(sys.argv)
button = QPushButton("Hello")

Method 1 -- Direct Pointer

#icon = QIcon("/usr/share/icons/PiXflat/16x16/apps/web-browser.png")

Method 2 -- Standard Icons

#style = app.style()
#icon = style.standardIcon(QStyle.StandardPixmap.SP_FileDialogNewFolder)

Method 3 -- Explicit Theme

QIcon.setThemeName("Adwaita")
icon = QIcon.fromTheme("document-new")

button.setIcon(icon)
button.setIconSize(QSize(24,24))
button.show()

iconNull = icon.isNull()
print(iconNull)

app.exec()
