I could bibisect this to the same commit as bug 153699, using Ubuntu 22.04 and gtk3 VCL plgin (not with gen):

"turn cairo_font_options_set_hint_metrics back off again"

If I understand correctly, version of cairo is 1.16.0 here:
https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/libcairo2

Caolán, could you please check if this bug exists with more recent cairo, and if there is a way to workaround it in LO?
