This is a known issue in Visio. Custom icons in .vsdx file simply do not work.

If you are really determined to have custom pictures, you should do it otherwise. Like via VBA macro, by writing a callback, i.e. instead of image specifying getImage pointing to some callback function to get the custom image. Or even by creating a full-blown extension.

Note - Microsoft-defined (idMso) images work fine.
