A lot of work went into improving the Sinhala range in the 2010-09-19 version of FreeFont.
It has been tested by native-language speakers, and declared to be working well.

The two characters that aren't being displayed in the images, 0D9F, 0D86, have been in the font
and working since at least that time.

Please try out the latest version at
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/freefont/

Unfortunately, it takes a long time to traverse the long path from FreeFont to debian to ubuntu.

Moreover, we at FreeFont are not informed of problems posted on distribution sites like this one.
So we can't do anything about them unless we happen to stumble across them.

Posting your problems on Ubuntu about software Ubuntu does not maintain is not a useful exercise.
Sort of like tossing coins in a well.
