Steps to reproduce:
1. Remove roboto fonts if they are installed: ttf-roboto ttf-roboto-mono
2. Open sfizz and click on the dropdown menu to load a new instrument

Looks like they bundle this font, but it's not being found? Probably better to remove the bundled one and use the package anyway.

@ale: Thanks for the report.

It looks like the vst3 plugin is bundling their local copy of the font, but e.g. the lv2 plugin requires it to be found on the system.
Will have a look on how to best get around it and fix it in a pkgrel bump.
