I believe the call to buffer-face-set above is in error, and thus
doesn't do what you want.

And this switches the entire frame to the new font: again, not what
you want.

If you fix these two problems, i.e. use buffer-face-set correctly and
don't use set-frame-font at all, your setup will work as you want.

IOW, I don't think there's an Emacs bug here.
