Font Arial missing in Brave 1.63 (ok in 1.62) - Linux Ubuntu 22.04

After Update Brave to 1.63 (Ubuntu 22.04.3) some webites do not show Arial anymore.

I’ve checked this on three Ubuntu 22.04 hosts - all shows the same problem.
Other browsers like Chrome and Firefox have no problems showing Arial on the same host and with the same webpage.
Same applies to Brave-Beta 1.64 / Linux Ubuntu 22.04.3.

Some more tests in my environment:

a) JS Fiddle: Arial not used, Serif font used instead (https://jsfiddle.net/crose9/mL5t1a6f/1/)

b) JS Fiddle: Fall Back ‘Sans-Serif’ (https://jsfiddle.net/crose9/mL5t1a6f/1/), better - at least there are no serif anymore.

Thanks

We were able to fix it by going into the Appearance>Font>Custom Fonts settings in the browser and changing the Standard Font to Arial from the default Times New Roman. Hope that helps!
