The Codex describes setting a default avatar here:

https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/guides/customizing-buddypress-avatars/

Unfortunately this option no longer seems to work.

Thanks for noticing, @venutius! That document is a couple of years old.

Can you try the following things?

If you disable Gravatar fetching with:

add_filter( 'bp_core_fetch_avatar_no_grav', '__return_true' );

Then the BP_AVATAR_DEFAULT define should work. Can you confirm?

However, if you want to keep Gravatar enabled, but have a different default avatar, can you try the following?

add_filter( 'bp_core_avatar_default', function() {
	return BP_AVATAR_DEFAULT;
} );

Sorry @johnjamesjacoby for the ping. Looks like Trac auto-assigns you to tickets marked in the BuddyPress.org Sites milestone.

@r-a-y Sorry for the delayed response, I don't think I'm getting trac notifications. Just tried it and I can confirm your solution works. I'll update the codex page.
