So, after manually adding the page break, you should have the newly 
added page, the page /after/ the newly added page and the page /before/ 
the newly added page.

If so, did you set the "Next Style" on the page /before/ the newly added 
page to 'Converted2' and then set the "Next Style" of 'Converted2' to be 
whatever style you want applied to the page /after /the newly added 
page?   I was able to create a test document that had 3 pages.  Page one 
has page style "Default", page two has page style "MyCustom", and page 
three has page style "Default".  I'm using 24.2.5.2 on Arch (Manjaro) as 
well.

Once you have your page styles setup, you might have to manually update 
the page before the "special" page and the "special" page to have the 
correct "Next" styles.  Also, you should be able to choose the style to 
use for each individual page, without the subsequent pages being changed.

Peace...
