Tsubaki: changing 'all' Heading font in Styles does nothing
Edit: Please see https://github.com/Automattic/themes/issues/7152 for larger context and workarounds (also noted below)
Quick summary
If you use the Styles menu within the Site Editor, and try to change the font family for all headings at the same time, nothing happens.
Steps to reproduce
- open a site using the Tsubaki theme
- add some heading blocks that you can see in the Site Editor
- in the Site Editor, open Styles > Typography > headings
- leave the "All" option selected (rather than choosing H1 or H2 etc individually) and change the font to any of the available options:

note: changing the font for H1 or H2 etc individually works, but if you try to select default from the dropdown (which I assume would make them use the font set under all, it immediately reverts to system font instead
What you expected to happen
The fonts for all Heading elements should be changed, unless they're overridden at the individual level
What actually happened
no font change occurs

Atomic
Theme-specific issue?
Tsubaki
Browser, operating system and other notes
No response
Reproducibility
Consistent
Severity
Some (< 50%)
Available workarounds?
Yes, easy to implement
Workaround details
Users can still set the font family for Headings by setting them at each level individually. Setting h1, h2, h3, h4, h5 and h6 each to the same font has the same effect as changing all fonts at once, but is more labor-intensive

Able to reproduce. Leaving Low priority due to low impact.
I think this would be better in https://github.com/Automattic/themes/issues
Identical to https://github.com/Automattic/themes/issues/6793
Probably a duplicate of https://github.com/Automattic/wp-calypso/issues/71641

This issue also affects Russel and Byrne, and probably affects all Blockbase themes. I'm increasing the priority to High for that reason.

I am providing CSS as a workaround.
📌 ACTIONS Put together a larger report here:
- https://github.com/Automattic/themes/issues/7152
📌 WORKAROUND
In the meantime, a default Heading font family can be set under Styles > Blocks > Heading > Typography > FONT instead.
I can reproduce this problem on a simple site with a Premium plan. ✅
I CANNOT reproduce it on a local site running the Tsubaki theme. ❌
I was eventually able to reproduce the issue locally and created a PR that should fix it: 154555-ghe-Automattic/wpcom-premium-themes
