Question Embedded fonts

Hi,
I'm preparing my first ebook for retail and everything is working smoothly (to my surprise) except for font embedding.

I'm Using Adobe InDesign CC to export an ePub.
I'm using Google fonts (otf and ttf files) and checking the "Include Embeddable Fonts" checkbox.

When I preview in ADE, iBooks, and the Nook app the fonts are displaying properly. However when I sideload onto (sync with via itunes) the ipad, the embedded fonts are gone. In iBooks on the ipad the fonts are set to "Original" which I assume means "embedded."
As a side note, I'm having the same issue on kindle.

Has anyone had this issue and figured out what needs to be done to fix it?
Thanks in advance!
