Is there any way to fix this in Ubuntu 14.04? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Serious props to asymptotically for this one! His solution was amazing:

I found this, and it's actually excellent. Download, extract, copy resources.zip to /opt/spotify/spotify-client/Data (overwriting the existing file), and restart Spotify.

UPDATE: Spotify released a new update, and allowing the update rewrites the resources.zip file. The theme has considerably changed, so the same zip won't work - however, you just need to copy over resources.zip, extract, and in the _linux subdirectory, delete all files and copy over _linux/spotify_icon.ico from the one that you downloaded, zip it back up and copy the zip file back
