Which is the output from "kpsewhich --var-value=OSFONTDIR"?

AfaIk, you should get /usr/share/fonts// (double slash to handle
subdirectories).

You could try (after fixing path above when needed) "mtxrun --script
fonts --reload --force".

I think these are unrelated tools (although I’m not an expert).

For ConTeXt, I think it is better you use the ConTeXt Suite (an
standalone ConTeXt distribution).

As a matter of fact, I don’t have TeX Live (or LaTeX) installed. I only
use the ConTeXt Suite (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_Standalone).

I hope it helps (complain back, if it doesn’t :-)),
