Issue Type: Bug

  1. Remove all font settings in settings.json.
  2. Create new file and change language to Markdown.
  3. Enter the following:

  1. Press Ctrl+Shift+V to show preview:

  1. Observe the file rendered with Ubuntu for the plain text and Courier New for the code block. I do not have these fonts specified anywhere in my settings (including GNOME settings). My settings are:
dimitry@laptop:~$ fc-match monospace
CourierMod-Regular.ttf: "Courier" "Regular"
dimitry@laptop:~$ fc-match sans-serif
CenturyGothic-Regular.ttf: "Century Gothic" "Regular"
dimitry@laptop:~$ fc-match system-ui
CenturyGothic-Regular.ttf: "Century Gothic" "Regular"

  1. Change Markdown preview font to your favorite font, eg:
    "markdown.preview.fontFamily": "'Roboto Mono'"

  2. Observe the plain text rendered in the proper font, but the code block is still rendered using Courier New:

Current behavior:

The code blocked are rendered using Courier New font, disregarding the markdown.preview.fontFamily setting.

Expected behavior:

Code blocks are rendered respecting the markdown.preview.fontFamily setting or at least using the monospace font.

If I completely uninstall Courier New from the system, the code blocks are now rendered with DejaVu Sans Mono, which again is not specified in any of my settings:
