Same as OP problem, try to select​ the text that don't seem to follow the
style correctly and use the "format->remove direct formatting" (or
something like this) menu command.

As far as I know, text formatting depend on at least four things: paragraph
style, character style, direct paragraph formatting and direct character
formatting, roughly in that order. If you have direct formatting, changing
style won't erase it. The format->remove direct formatting clear these.
(I'm not talking about conditional format here, because I'm not sure
when/how they apply).
