When Chromium requests the local font for "Ubuntu Light", it appears to be getting back the font for "Ubuntu Regular":
Examples:
http://
http://
Both these pages, when viewed on Ubuntu Trusty with Chromium, "Light" looks the same as "Regular".
The CSS declaration for the light-weight font, in both these cases, asks the operating system for "local('Ubuntu Light'), local('
Compare bug 1054204, where the same thing happened with LibreOffice.

Until a fixed version is not only released, but common, the best value for the local source is probably ☺ as that's valid CSS syntax, but an invalid value, and as such should never be considered incorrect by a browser, but not match any font either, and while it's wasteful to force a download if the user has the font, at least they'll get the one you want them to get.
