The typeface "arial" you defined has no math font (and no sans and no 
mono font).  Add those and you should be fine:

\definetypeface [arial] [rm] [serif] [arial]
\definetypeface [arial] [ss] [sans]  [modern]
\definetypeface [arial] [tt] [mono]  [modern]
\definetypeface [arial] [mm] [math]  [modern]
