Ubuntu Error: Trying to access Windows-1252 fonts but they are not loade

Dolphin 5.0-13227 on Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS 64 bit, compiled from source.

I'm using Dolphin via EmulationStation, with only a gamepad. Upon launching a few games I get a dialog with the message: "Error: Trying to access Windows-1252 fonts but they are not loaded. Games may not show fonts correctly, or crash." It can only be dismissed via the keyboard or mouse so it's a bit disruptive.

From searching around I've learned this is referring to GC menu fonts. I've confirmed that I do have font_western.bin and font_japanese.bin in Data/Sys/GC and even tried compiling from source again to see if it would resolve the issue, but I continue to get the dialog.

I ended up commenting out both of the alerts in EXI_DeviceIPL.cpp and compiling my own 'dirty' version of dolphin just so I don't get the dialogs anymore as a workaround. But I wanted to check here to see if there was something else I could try that gets to the bottom of it.

If you launch Dolphin without Emulation Station do you have the same problem?

You have all the packages installed that Dolphin needs? https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=Building_Dolphin_on_Linux#18.04_LTS_and_up
And you have Ubuntu up to date?

I've only ever seen this problem in a VM before

Yes, I have all of the packages installed and that is the wiki I followed to clone the repo and build the binary. I can circle back to see if there were any errors when building but after doing it a couple times nothing stood out to me. Ubuntu's up to date with 20.04.
