Sorry, I omitted that when copying my code...

\stoptext
{\getnamedglyphdirect{dingbats}{0x39}}

\stoptypescript
\definetypeface [dingbats][ss][sans][dingbats][default]
\starttext
{\getnamedglyphdirect{dingbats}{0x272a}}
Or here's the character directly: ✪
\stoptext
...still not working. But KCharSelect says that the Dingbats font has
a glyph at 0x272a.

And yet if I run mtxrun --script fonts --list --all --pattern=* | grep dingbats
immediately after that ConTeXt run, in the same shell session, I see:
dingbats dingbats
/usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/d050000l.afm
dingbatsnormal dingbats
/usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/d050000l.afm
Also doesn't work if I reference the afm file directly using
\definefontsynonym [sans][/usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/d050000l.afm]
try
name:dingbats
or
file:d050000l
and no path
