It seems that if you have two fonts named like so:

Alegreya
Alegreya SC
and install them on the kobo, then RMSDK at least does not like it. I did not test ACCESS. In my case, when I installed the Alegreya SC font, it started started displaying in place of the standard Alegreya variant, despite the standard variant being set in the menu.

To solve this, I simply had to change the font name of the small caps variant to remove the space
I have seen something similar, but I'm not sure exactly what the rule is.

I have "Gentium Basic" and "Gentium Book Basic" installed and have no problems at all.

I also have "Tex Gyre Adventor", "TeX Gyre Bonum", "TeX Gyre Pagella", and others which have no problems.

But I tried "Courier Prime" and "Courier Prime Sans" and had problems, only the Sans could be selected in the EPUB reader.

So it would seem that if you have to versions of a font, and the names up to the first whitespace are identical, there will be problems.
Perhaps the rule is that the font can't be selected if there is another that has the same name apart from extra words at the end?
