Insert Special Character as Workaround - Does Not Work

I assumed directly inserting the character should work as a workaround because
that would still be the same font.
It did not work.

This appears to point to a larger OpenType kerning issue.

The attached image shows tests in LibreOffice and other applications.
The alternate A character has been inserted directly.
Some applications do the kerning right, some do it wrong.

LibreOffice 6.0.3.2 - Wrong
Word 2016 - Wrong
InDesign 2018 - Right
Scribus 1.5.4 SVN - Wrong
GIMP 2.8 - Right
Inkscape 9.92.2 - Right
FontCreator - Right

FontCreator does not show a specific kerning pair(s) for that alternate
character.
It appears it is coming from the class.

It appears that GIMP, Inkscape, and InDesign read this properly and kern the
characters properly.

Should I enter this in the tracker as a separate issue?
