Problem solved! The issue origin was because some days ago I installed gnome glib-2.0 for c development purpose. I don't know why only after the update the problem arose. To discover the problem: from command line after doing:
$ unity-control-center
I can see the error:
GLib-Gio-Message: Using the 'memory' GSettings backend. Your settings will not be saved or shared with other applications.
The problem is that in the search path the installed glib (under usr/local) is searched before the library referenced by unity.
To solve the problem I ran sudo make uninstall from the directory where I downloaded gnome glib. After reboot every icon and setting was restored automatically.
Eventually it would be possible to change the search path of dynamic libraries defined in /etc/ld.so.conf.d/.
