Sometimes get this error:
(soffice:7707): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: 11:36:44.155: ../../../../gobject/gsignal.c:3492: signal name 'selection_changed' is invalid for instance '0x560914d59ee0' of type 'OOoAtkObjCompTxt'
But it seems not tied to the described problem and may be a related issue.

Do you mean the preview in the dialog?

I can't confirm this with

Version: 6.0.6.2 (x64)

Created attachment 144491 [details]
screenshot of "Bullet symbol: " in options menu

If a symbol from the "favorites" list of symbols is selected, the bullet symbol as shown in attachment, will not change.
Comment 4 Paul 2018-08-28 01:58:17 UTC
No the preview symbol in the character selector will change. The symbol shown in the options menu after the text "Bullet symbol: <your symbol>" will not change if you had selected that symbol from the "Favorites" list. 

In the attached screenshot the circle with a dot in it is the currently selected bullet symbol. That is what would not have changed.

Verified this is fixed in later versions. 6.0.7.3 definitely fixes it.
