Resolved by removing / installing nerd-fonts-hack package.

Ensure that the monospace alias is correctly specified in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fontconfig/fonts.conf:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
    <alias>
        <family>monospace</family>
        <prefer>
            <family>Hack Nerd Font</family>
        </prefer>
    </alias>
</fontconfig>
