Thanks for your attempt to fix it. Haven't tried the new patch yet, but
before I saw it, I created a new PPA for trying the Arch Linux way: A
possible upgrade to fc 2.11.94:

https://launchpad.net/~gunnarhj/+archive/ubuntu/fontconfig-test2

Much better result. :) (The below is without the influence of the
language-selector .conf files.)

$ fc-match -V
fontconfig version 2.11.1
$ fc-match -a | grep 'Noto Sans CJK SC'
NotoSansCJK.ttc: "Noto Sans CJK SC" "DemiLight"
NotoSansCJK.ttc: "Noto Sans CJK SC" "Regular"
NotoSansCJK.ttc: "Noto Sans CJK SC" "Medium"
NotoSansCJK.ttc: "Noto Sans CJK SC" "Thin"
NotoSansCJK.ttc: "Noto Sans CJK SC" "Light"
NotoSansCJK.ttc: "Noto Sans CJK SC" "Bold"
NotoSansCJK.ttc: "Noto Sans CJK SC" "Black"
$ fc-match -V
fontconfig version 2.11.94
$ fc-match -a | grep 'Noto Sans CJK SC'
NotoSansCJK.ttc: "Noto Sans CJK SC" "Regular"
NotoSansCJK.ttc: "Noto Sans CJK SC" "Medium"
NotoSansCJK.ttc: "Noto Sans CJK SC" "DemiLight"
NotoSansCJK.ttc: "Noto Sans CJK SC" "Light"
NotoSansCJK.ttc: "Noto Sans CJK SC" "Thin"
NotoSansCJK.ttc: "Noto Sans CJK SC" "Bold"
NotoSansCJK.ttc: "Noto Sans CJK SC" "Black"

I can't tell if it would be possible to have this accepted for 16.04. It
would be very interesting to know if fc 2.11.94 also fixes the Firefox
issue, which has been reported at bug #1468027 (see my latest comment
there).
