Well, I am using Firefox, Firefox 47.0+build3-0ubuntu0.14.04.1. With UKai installed, as far as I can retell, some of the Chinese content (usernames in Twitter notifications) are still displayed in Droid Sans, while tweet bodies are mostly displayed in UKai. I have just did some extra 'inspect element' work on these differences, and found that Twitter actually applies results of its own language detection on tweet bodies as html 'lang' attributes. Many Simplified Chinese text tend to be recognized as Japanese, so I am able to show you matching results from different languages.
ja: good (mis-recognized zh text) en: good (Twitter UI) zh: UKai `LC_ALL=zh_CN.UTF-8 fc-match -a 'Sans' | head` shows UKai CN in the fourth place following Droid Sans Fallback, UMing CN and UMing HK, so yeah it sounds like a Firefox.......

However, this set of generics is completely intolerable -- setting UKai as a generic is like setting Zapfino and/or Comic Sans as a system-wise generic, while UMing as a normal (just a bit thin) serif sounds a bit better. This yields terrible results on non-Chinese systems with non-Chinese lang-attributed websites, like Twitter, on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS after installing Chinese language support which includes the two arphic fonts mentioned in this report. This problem is similar to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20911, a long-standing system-global fontconfig non-latin fallback problem. See also bug #1560548 where these generic settings are considered as 'redundant' and proposed for deletion. I have mentioned a third-person report about such selection in #1560548 previously, but I have just reproduced this bug by myself by installing zh-cn support by mistake.
