I once had this exact problem. (although it was only every 20th time fonts
were different).

I found that switching off my monitor, turning it back on, and restarting X
(ctrl-alt-backspace) often would solve the problem. 

It turned out to be a problem of DCC (detecting screen size or something).
Back then I had a creative geforce2 gts and a sony 19" crt
I used drivers from nvidia and found there was an option to disable DCC
(NoDCC i think). It solved my problems.

Dont know what drivers/graphicscard you are using but perhaps you could do
something similiar?
