[Bug 1442977] [NEW] Font display issue

 

Public bug reported:

Text is occasionally rendered such that random letters throughout all
applications are missing. This appears to only affect the system default
font. Changing the text scaling factor via something like Ubuntu Tweak
resolves the issue, as does changing the system default font. The issue
reappears, however, upon reboot.
