One thing I forgot is that there was a problem with the way the line spacing was set for ePubs that was fixed in firmware 3.16.0, so if you are using firmware older than 3.16.0 then the problems you see might be related to that.

The problem was that the default line-height set by the line spacing adjustment slider was set in em units, which meant that even if you removed all line-height styles from the stylesheet, font-size rescaling could still affect the line spacing. In firmware 3.16.0 the way the line spacing is set was changed to use a unitess line height, and so the font size rescaling should no longer cause a problem unless the publisher has tried to force a fixed line-height with em/% units.

There is a little more information in this post including some screenshots that show some of the effects of the problem.
