Bug#967942: playonlinux: Issue with setting icon for shortcut to program installed through PoL

[Ariel]

Package: playonlinux
Version: 4.3.4-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I'm having the following issue: I install a Windows program through PoL; create a shortcut using the menu to do so, then try to set the icon for the program to the correct one. When I do this, an icon for a different program shows up, rather than the correct one I had just selected, and also, the configuration menu then refuses to open (which is the real problem).
I was able to resolve the issue by deleting the virtual drive containing the program in question, then re-installing and making do with the wrong icon showing.
The issue may relate to that several of the shortcuts I have are to different programs but with the same .exe filename
