You nailed it! In the books I tried, the CSS did define
Code:
font-family: serif;
Removing that ebook CSS definition, I could select the mono/sans options.
So the priority is:
  1. CSS setting ebook
  2. calibre editor setting

And I admit, that is not what I expected My expectation is more that the editor should be able to override book settings, as the editor is supposed to make change possible.

So in the end, it works as intended, but not as expected.
