Problem here is your base mesh I think.
An Icosphere is not symmetrical on the X axis and thus X-Mirror option wont work here.
(It doesnt for Partice Edit mode, it also wont work for regular editmode, it also didnt work in 2.79 -- there is just no matching geo found on the "other side"...)

However, when you have true symmetrical input, X-Mirror is working, also in Particle Edit mode, see:
