Sorry, of course.

After setting up a mwe I found that it is a font related issue.

When I don't specify a font, it works. --> example.tex

When I choose EB Garamond, it does not work. -- example-Garamond.tex

I confirmed this behaviour in my real setup.

don't assume that ligatures are always real ligatures ... in that font
it's just kerning .. this kind of works okay:

\replaceword[sellig][auflösen][auf{-}{}{\zwnj}lösen]

I am confused as the specimen of EB Garamond mentions (real) ligatures.
They are listed as glyphs.

https://github.com/georgd/EB-Garamond/blob/master/specimen/Specimen.pdf

maybe the archaic st ligature is a precomposed but f f l i aren't done that way but by either kerning or replacement of individual glyphs + kerning (there are many methods for this) ... also, 'liga' might mean ligature but in practice is used for all kind of things ... in opentype 'ligature substitution' is just a many-to-one replacement but that doesn't mean that 'liga' uses that ... welcome to the inconsistent open type mess
