Actually, with breeze this is fixed since months. If it didn't work for you,
you probably experienced a different problem, maybe this one:
https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=970896, which is indeed fixed in
dolphin 16.04.
But the rating display is still completely broken with other themes (including
oxygen) that don't provide a "rating-unrated" icon.
The reason is as suggested in comment#20:

But, this is not a bug in the icon loader I think, that's how the behaviour is
defined in the freedesktop icon name specification
(https://specifications.freedesktop.org/icon-naming-spec/icon-naming-spec-latest.html#guidelines):
The dash “-” character is used to separate levels of specificity in icon names,
for all contexts other than MimeTypes. For instance, we use “input-mouse” as
the generic item for all mouse devices, and we use “input-mouse-usb” for a USB
mouse device. However, if the more specific item does not exist in the current
theme, and does exist in a parent theme, the generic icon from the current
theme is preferred, in order to keep consistent style.
That implies that if "rating-unrated" doesn't exist in the current theme,
"rating" (from the current theme) should be used instead.
So "rating-unrated" was actually a bad choice to begin with I think, and can't
really work as intended IMHO.
But what about the most obvious and probably easiest "solution"?
Just add a "rating-unrated" icon to the oxygen theme.
That should fix the problem also for other themes, as oxygen is still used as
fallback for missing icons in the currently configured icon theme.
