Master MOBI (MOBI+KF8) and AZK were created using Kindle Previewer 2.94. KFX was created using Kindle Previewer 3.15 and the KFX Output calibre plugin.

The results were as follows:

MOBI (Kindle Previewer 3.15 - Tablet device, Kindle for PC 1.20.1, Kindle for Android 7.18.0.1), AZK (Kindle for iOS 5.15.2), KFX (Kindle Previewer 3.15, Paperwhite II 5.8.11): Main body text shows whatever font the user selects and headings always show the embedded font.

MOBI (Kindle Previewer 2.94 - Voyage device, Paperwhite II 5.8.11): Main body text and headings show whatever font the user selects. Headings show the embedded font only when "Publisher font" is selected.
Hi:

Which would be what I expect. BUT, did you test the book on a real PPW, Voyage, or Kindle, as Jon did? What worries me is, in the past, I've found the PPW/Voyage/Oasis family to be largely correctly emulated by Previewer 2.xx. I haven't had a chance to tear Jon's file apart, and then test it on the Voyage and PPW that we have here, but...I have bad tummy about this. I really hope I'm worrying about nothing.
