This is not the same problem. The problem here is that the code
references an icon name which is only provided by the Human theme, and
not any others. It has nothing to do with any technical problems which
may result from actually using suspend functionality.

You seem to be having a separate issue with technical functionality of
the suspend feature. It sounds like perhaps gnome-settings-daemon is
crashing when you resume from suspend. I would suspect that if those two
icons are missing, a lot more are also missing on your desktop, or are
certainly not Human icons. However, the "GNOME" icon theme does provide
the icon which the shutdown dialog uses for hibernate (a hard disk), so
I concur that it is very likely gnome-settings-daemon is crashing on
your system. You should file a separate bug report against that package
in Ubuntu, and hopefully a crash report got saved which you can attach
with "apport-collect -p gnome-settings-daemon $yournewbugnumber".
