This problem might be a combination of two well known issues:

1. iBooks epubs with embedded fonts usually require an unmanifested com.apple.ibooks.display-options.xml file in the META-INF folder with the following content:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<display_options>
    <platform name="*">
         <option name="specified-fonts">true</option>
    </platform>
</display_options>

2. InDesign obfuscates fonts by default, which KindleGen doesn't like.

You may want to add com.apple.ibooks.display-options.xml and replace the obfuscated fonts with unobfuscated ones.
