Nimbostratuswe are experiencing the same issue both on the latest 11.6 and 11.5.1 HF4.
Where once a failover happens many icons can go missing -but its inconsistent sometimes icons disappear sometimes they appear fine after a failover.
the manual way to fix it is to apply an access policy update but this is not a fix...it shouldn't happen at all during a failover.
We have setup the HA as recommended:
1) config sync: on dedicated HA vlan (also tried on internal vlan)
2) failover: on dedicated HA vlan
3) mirroring: on dedicated HA vlan
but issue still occurs.
I think a new funtion to automatically apply an access policy update when a failover occurs should be an option...
I have a question open for this; but don't know how to do it:

Simon_Waters_13Thanks William. I have ticket open again with F5. Seeing this with the "bash" shell HF on 11.6.0. We have some evidence that sometimes only some users see the reduced menu?! Unfortunately users are remote, and we can't grab their desktops to take a look when it occurs. So failure may be partial or complete. A nominal - textual change - to the policy has always resolved it so far. Does seem to be something to do with fail-over, but we've seen it on both boxes, so presumably it is when failing over to the box on which the policy was no directly applied last time. Or something of that ilk.
