Hmm, been looking at this and you might have discovered a small bug (indeed depending on browser).
If you're not scared of code, could you open up wp-content/plugins/autoptimize/classes/autoptimizeStyles.php and on line 449 replace
$replace[$hash] = 'url('.$newurl.')';
with
$replace[$hash] = 'url(\''.$newurl.'\')';
This should solve your @font-face and should hopefully not cause regressions.
Looking forward to your feedback,
frank
