I have now tried to link the complete folder with

$ ln -sFin "/Library/TeX/Root/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype/" "$HOME/Library/Fonts/opentype"

but got the same result. Font Book can find all fonts and reports no problems when validating them but cannot read them properly and just displays question marks in the preview. I have also tried to reset all fonts in Font Book preferences.
