Yes I agree with your writing. I've tried various combinations avatar must be png or must have a name .face.icon. Have you looked at this structure and avatar that is located here.
/var/lib/AccountsService/icons/
Maui shows the avatar if the png, Neon must have a path to the avatar.
Don't forget that SDDM must also have permission to view the avatar in the path location as well.
