I suspect some interaction between your window manager and graphics driver causes your character and symbol rendering problem. You may want to install a different window manager and see if the problem remains, then approach the Awesome devs to help you with troubleshooting. It's not unusual for less mainstream WM devs to focus their code on NVidia/Intel, or whatever hardware and drivers they have at their disposal and miss out on such problems like yours until they are drawn to their attention.
