Scaling of parentheses and brackets with unicode-math and kpfonts fails

Question

The problem

I use unicode-math and lualatex and for beamer presentations, I want a fully compatible OTF sans serif font (that looks good with Myriad Pro unlike GFSNeohellenicMath). Kp-Math-Sans works and isn't lacking any symbols like Fira-Math. Sadly, parentheses and right brackets can't be scaled up (not even with \big) although it works fine with Kp-Math-Regular.

Using unicode-math:

Using kp-fonts (which loads the T1 font and does too much):

However, these two packages are incompatible with each other.

I also tried loading only ranges, but this only caused problems with scaling: Only Neohellenic (\setmathfont[version=sf]{GFSNeohellenicMath}):

Both ( \setmathfont[version=sf]{GFSNeohellenicMath} \setmathfont[ range={up, it, bb, frak, cal, scr, sfup, sfit, bfup,bfit, bfcal}, version=sf ]{KpMath-Sans}):

In this case everything was taken from KpMath-Sans (the pdf didn't contain NeoHellenic)

I also tried different combinations with Fira-Math but that even introduced division by 0 errors because the sizes of characters probably got messed up.

The question

Is there a way to combine fonts such that I can get correctly scaling braces? It would be extremely impractical to change all scaling braces to the proposed solution in this old related post: unicode-math and braces scaling.

Also it seems that kp-math-Sans doesn't have the problem diagnosed there (not being a OTF-Math font).

Is there maybe a working version of the OTF file somewhere out there? Or can I load the T1 font in a way consistent with all the unicode-math stuff?

The minimal example from the pictures:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[nott, notext, notextcomp]{kpfonts}
% \usepackage{unicode-math}
% \setmathfont{Kp-Math-Regular}
% \setmathfont[version = sf]{KpMath-Sans}
\begin{document}
Normal:
$\left(\begin{matrix}
    ff\\gg\\gg\\hh
\end{matrix} \right)$ \quad
$\big(()\big)$ \quad
\mathversion{sf}
Sans Serif:
$\left[ \begin{matrix}
    ff\\gg\\gg\\hh
\end{matrix} \right]$ \quad 
$\left(\begin{matrix}
    ff\\gg\\gg\\hh
\end{matrix} \right)$ \quad
$\big(()\big)$
\end{document}

With LuaTeX or XeTeX you should use the OTF version of the kpfonts.

This works fine for me:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{kpfonts-otf}
\setmathfont{KpMath-Sans.otf}[version=sf]
\begin{document}
Normal:
$\left(\begin{matrix}
ff\\gg\\gg\\hh
\end{matrix} \right)$ \quad
$\big(()\big)$ \quad
\mathversion{sf}
Sans Serif:
$\left[ \begin{matrix}
ff\\gg\\gg\\hh
\end{matrix} \right]$ \quad
$\left(\begin{matrix}
ff\\gg\\gg\\hh
\end{matrix} \right)$ \quad
$\big(()\big)$

\end{document}
