Well, none of the CJK fonts has _all_ CJK glyphs included, only those which are necessary to display the specific script. Apps like Mozilla and also Gnome use fontconfig to decide from which fonts the 'missing' glyphs should be taken. AFAIK qt apps don't use fontconfig, or the font selection process doesn't work correctly. Anyways, it doesn't work properly. The ttf-arphic-uming and ttf-arphic-ukai fonts contain more glyphs, but not all CJK glyphs yet. They are suitable for displaying simpl. and trad. Chinese (incl. HKSCS-2004), but not yet Japanese or Korean. I'm working on it. However, I fear that you would have to choose your font explicitely for now. Any other folks who can give some hints?
