I have the same issue. When converting PDF to SVG with Inkscape Command line(with and without text as path both) text is not rendering as in PDF, in SVG.
When I convert the same file with Inkscape GUI and select Import setting "Poppler/Cairo import" it works properly. Doesn't even work with Import setting "Internal import" in GUI.
