For the "neotree" pane to the left the icons are replicated 3 times

What is the value of your dirvish-attributes and dirvish--icon-backend?
If you set dirvish-attributes to nil, how does it look like?
And can you test it with emacs -q? Just do

emacs -q -L dirvish -L dirvish/extensions -L all-the-icons.el -l dirvish -l all-the-icons --eval "(progn (setq dirvish-attributes '(all-the-icons)) (dirvish))"

in the packages directory.
It gives me something like this:

[fleimgruber]

dirvish-attributes: nil
dirvish-icon-backend: all-the-icons

emacs -q ... leads to similar results as you showed (i.e. correct behavior).

Any ideas which user config could mess up the display as shown in initial post?

Another thing that might represent a lead, initially the icons are duplicated twice in the neotree pane:

If your dirvish-attributes evals to nil, then these icons are not rendered by dirvish. I don't use spacemacs myself so I'm not sure where these icons came from. Do you have treemacs installed? Maybe it added some hooks in dired-mode-hook and dired-after-readin-hook.

[fleimgruber]

Good point, treemacs is installed, but I did not find a way of testing without it yet. Will check back later.

[alexluigit]

This should work. But a better solution would be inhibit loading treemacs-icons-dired in the first place.

(remove-hook 'dired-mode-hook 'treemacs-icons-dired-mode)
(remove-hook 'dired-after-readin-hook 'treemacs-icons-dired--display)

Your workaround works, thanks! Might be good to have a Spacemacs compat section? I could come up with a draft for that.

I agree with the proposal and thanks for your help :)
