Ah, excellent! Can you add this to the sans-serif and "WenQuanYi Micro
Hei Mono" to the monospace section too? If that all fixes it then I will
upload a new ttf-wqy-microhei to my PPA next week that you can test
after settings 65-nonlatin back to the default. (I'd prefer to change
this and not fontconfig's default is possible, but doing that is fine as
a fallback).

Thanks for your testing. :-)

Cheers,
