Monospace font issue GNOME3

Hello. I am encountering a weird issue where some fonts are being forced to a weird monospace one.
Screenshot: https://s4.postimg.org/5t8qeyq2l/gnomecrap.png
As you can see, this is quite clearly present with the date/type. Infinality makes it better, but doesn't fix it. I have had this issue before, and fixed it, but I can't remember what I did. I have tried changing fonts manually, and none of them have an effect on that window title. This happened when I ran pacman -Syu on Aug 20.
List of packages upgraded on Aug 20: http://pastebin.com/XrKhsejJ
Note: I did upgrade some AUR packages that are in this list

Thanks for any help
If you need any more details please ask

Install Inconsolata and dejavu sans , I use Noto Sans as default font for KDE and Droid Sans for Gnome 3.20 .

Re: Monospace font issue GNOME3

did you try rebuilding your font cache?

$ fc-cache -fr

Re: Monospace font issue GNOME3

@aja, I have both of those installed
@ooo, I ran that command with sudo, and the 32bit variant, and still nothing. It indicated a success though.

Also, it appears it is looking for something else, as I tried changing the monospace font to a non monospace one, and there was no effect.

Re: Monospace font issue GNOME3

Use

fc-match monospace

to find out what font monospace is mapped to.

You're supposed to run it as your user, not root, to regenerate your user's font cache.

Ok, ran that and the 32-bit version as my user, and still nothing.

Re: Monospace font issue GNOME3

I should add that this appears to only be in GNOME. Lightdm is fine.
