Default font style not applied on older platforms <4.0.4

See original GitHub issue

I test the calligraphy styled application on a older android 4.0.4 (GT-P7100) with the result that the font is not applied. It seems that the default definition isn’t applied which i have declared in this way:

    <style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
        <item name="android:textAppearance">@style/LightTextAppearance</item>
    </style>

    <style name="LightTextAppearance" parent="android:TextAppearance">
        <item name="fontPath">fonts/LightWeb.ttf</item>
    </style>

This worked fine so far on other devices and api level. What can i do further solving this issue?

I had exactly this set, but without effect. I changed the font right now, and now it works as expected. Seems the font is the problem. The font can just set in the styles to work.
