Text scaling is applied only to GTK drawn controls

Bug Description

I use a text-scaling-factor on my 1440p screen to make the fonts slightly larger. I use this:

$ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface text-scaling-factor 1.3

Audacity will respond to this by scaling up the fonts of the GTK controls and not the rest. This leads to an inconsistent interface. It should either apply that scaling factor to all controls or ignore it completely.
