p-dropdown with templates not working with material-icons

[MickeyMiner]

Hi,

I would like to create a dropdown with material icon inside depending on a property of the item.

Problems:
- selected value does not change
- icons are not rendered

Can anyone help me with it?

I've created a Plunker: https://plnkr.co/edit/Ld3dyT58wL26qn96Hgap?p=preview
