I just did some testing in case, for some reason, there was something in Uniscribe that affects this, but it didn't appear to be the case.
You are using beta2, right?
I see Mongolian as expected using the standard writing-mode: tb-lr. (And I see Chinese and Japanese as expected using tb-rl.) See the early drafts of my tests with screen grabs for the reference graphics at

and

You are putting the CSS on a block element, right ?
