Powerline characters not taking up full line height

Hello,
I love this font and I've been using it for years!
With the new versions, I've been having some rendering issues with the Powerline characters. They don't seem to be taking up the entire line height, so the transitions look a little wonky. Here's some examples with different terminals:
This happens with both the TTF and OTF versions of the font and on both my Windows and Linux (Fedora/Gnome 43) installation. From my tests, it looks like this for v1.5 and v1.6, with v1.4 looking a lot more broken and v1.3 looking the most correct (maybe cutting off on the left side of the glyph).
It's also affected by the type hinting settings, although I haven't found a setting that makes them render correctly.
Let me know if you need any more info!
I'm gonna look into the issue. To me, it also looks like a hinting problem.
