Apparently the weirdness I observed is a bit more subtle than I
described: changing the font with the usetex setting on does indeed
change the font used for the plot title and axis labels, but not for
the axis ticks. Changing the font with the usetex settings off causes
the selected font family to be used for the axis ticks.
