I have never had this problem and have never had the need to create 
sections.  Maybe it's because I always use page styles alternating from 
right page to left page and back.  For instance, I begin a book with a 
page style called "Title", marked as right page only and set the next 
page style to "Copyright".  I set the Copyright style to left page only 
and the next style as FrontMatterRight.  I set the FrontMatterRight 
style to right page only and next style as FrontMatterLeft and set the 
FrontMatterLeft style to left page only and next style to 
FrontMatterRight.  This puts me in a loop, and to break out of the loop 
I insert a manual page break and check the option to change the style.  
I also set the FrontMatter styles to use lower case roman numerals for 
page numbering and I can change the page numbering at the same time as I 
break out of the loop with the insert manual page break.

I find this necessary because I set my margins on right pages to have a 
larger margin on the left and on left pages to have a larger margin on 
the right.  This is for binding purposes.
