icons should be installed into 
$(kde_datadir)/appname/icons/hicolor/22x22/actions
where 22x22 can be any of 16x16, 22x22, 32x32 or 48x48
and actions can be any of actions, apps, mimetypes, etc.
The best way to do it is by using some Makefile magic done by the am_edit 
script. To do so, just substitute the above lines (pics_DATA and picsdir) 
with:
KDE_ICON = AUTO

and then rename your icons (icon1.png, icon2.png) to something like
hi22-action-icon1.png, hi32-mime-icon2.png or hi16-app-appname.png
and they'll be moved to the correct directory automatically (in fact, 
they'll be installed to the main directory instead of your own). In case 
you don't want to use the main directory for your icons (because you'll 
install too many for example), just use your current method but be sure to 
use the correct directories.

As Carsten said, you shouldn't use BarIcon with actions, because that'll 
make toolbar icons to be inserted into menu bars instead of leaving the 
decision of which icons to insert where, to KAction.
