Also, please go to the problematic place in the text and type "C-u C-x =", then post everything that Emacs shows in the *Help* buffer as result.  Please do this both at text scale zero, when shaping is incorrect, and at non-zero scale, and post the contents of *Help* in both cases.

Screenshots of both displays as well as the text of the buffer used for these experiments will also help, as mentioned earlier 

And finally, please try this with the version on the master branch, where a few fixes were installed lately.
