Obvious question, but I have to ask:  Do you actually have them
installed?  And if so, where?

Where/what?

While I've not actually tried it specifically with Arial, I have tried
specifying other certain fonts, and I notice that Firefox typically does
whatever it feels best (darned if I could work it out), yet other
programs did use fonts as told to.

One place to start to research this:  /etc/fonts/fonts.conf

Read the comments in the file, track back what owns it, research that.
Look at related information.

I participated in a thread about this on May 8th, Re: Liberation Fonts &
Font-Mapping 101.  Have a prowl through the archives, the link is in the
mailing list's signature below (the address isn't just for

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.  I
