BUG - Font Selection Changed on Words in Italics

Version: 2.9.0.36 Beta (818046) 64-bit

I’ve just upgraded to this version of the Beta and am finding an issue with text with italics formatting. It’s fine when I save the file and close, but when I re-open the file, any text that was marked as italic, has had the assigned font changed from the regular version to the black version.

Example: I’ve set ‘Lato’ as the font for my ‘Normal’ style. When I open the file the next day, any text where I formatted it with Italics has been switched from ‘Lato’ to ‘Lato Black’

Does this occur with other fonts? Or does it appear to be specific to Lato?

I’ve tried several other fonts and so far am only seeing this when using Lato
