I get the same output in 5.3 with or without HarfBuzz. Might be related to the changes in symbol font handling as these seem to be PUA characters.

On  Windows 10 Pro 64-bit en-US with
5.4.0 53dbc419b2e886b345a3512cf11e035ff2b7651b (2016-12-12 TB39)

The font in the pptx is PUA mapped symbol font "Symbol" -- as it is present on this Windows system, so no fallback is needed.

But what to do (if anything) with PUA mapped fonts in documents that don't embed and the font is not installed on system?

Same issues as bug 103664?
