More than likely this has to do with the wp_reset_postdata(); call. Reset post data resets it to the main query.

I’m guessing that you have a secondary query in the template. This happens when you get more than two nested queries in WP.

There are two methods you can use to fix this

if ($icon):
  // hold the current post
  $temp_post = $post;
	$post = $icon;
	setup_postdata($post);
	?>
	<i class="has-circle bg-brand2">
							<svg class="icon-<?php the_field('css'); ?>">
									<use xlink:href="<?php echo get_template_directory_uri(); ?>/images/icons/icons.svg#icon-<?php the_field('css'); ?>"></use>
							</svg>
					</i>
			<?php
		//wp_reset_postdata(); don't do this
		// instead do this
		$post = $temp_post;
endif;

OR

if ($icon):
	$post = $icon;
	// do not do this
	// setup_postdata($post);
	// instead use values in the $icon object
	// see changes to get_field() calls
	?>
	<i class="has-circle bg-brand2">
							<svg class="icon-<?php the_field('css', $icon->ID); ?>">
									<use xlink:href="<?php echo get_template_directory_uri(); ?>/images/icons/icons.svg#icon-<?php the_field('css', $icon->ID); ?>"></use>
							</svg>
					</i>
			<?php
		// do not do this
		//wp_reset_postdata();
endif;
