Also tried to add the user sddm to my own user group in /etc/group - doesn't work. Now, with this, sddm definitely has access to my .face.icon file, but doesn't show it.

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.
AJSlye: that's true, but without setting FacesDir parameter in the config file manually and setting the username.face.icon file into that dir, it doesn't work. It doesn't check the .face.icon nor .face in the home dir even though it has permission for it.
