p7zip can't properly "guess" encodings in zip files.
I reported this to p7zip maintainers many years ago, but they never fixed it.
A workaround is to get file-roller use unzip instead of p7zip for
dealing with zip files. I patched file-roller and added it to
ppa:hanipouspilot/file-roller and mountain it for years. This is an
easy workaround.
Another way would be to set ZIP above 7Z in src/fr-init.c static void
register_archives (void)
