Does that font have a 'regular' weight variety?  If not, I think this
is a variant of the same issue I fixed in bug#51768: we now request a
'regular' weight when a face specifies the family, and a font which
doesn't have 'regular' is rejected.  So maybe the kludge that I added
to font.c only for MS-Windows should be in effect on Posix systems as
well?
