Is there a way to change the default automatic icon theme in LibreOffice?

Version: 24.2.3.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 433d9c2ded56988e8a90e6b2e771ee4e6a5ab2ba
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 6.8; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Flatpak
Calc: threaded

The automatic icon them is set to Elementary for light theme, and Sifr for dark theme. For example, the Elementary icon theme is set for light theme, as shown in the screenshot below:

It’s not related to this post, as this post is not about the application theme (appearance mode in LO terms), but the icon theme that’s not corresponding to the application theme.
