You can’t mix and match parts of files created by calibre and kindlegen.

You can fix the problem with devices and apps that use MOBI7 format by just dropping “Source Code Pro” from your font selection and going with just “monospace” or “courier, monospace”. That fails to display properly in the Kindle Previewer, but works in actual customer devices and apps except Kindle for PC.
