Thanks for the suggestion. This seems to kick it in the pants and
make the first page of the next chapter know that it is a first
page. One thing it now does weird is that if the page before it is
blank, it now prints the even numbered page using the odd-page
layout (the running head is flush right instead of left like a right
hand page). So I will have 3 recto-looking pages in a row instead of
the one in the middle looking like a verso.
Anyone seen this behavior before?
This is happening because of your conditional page masters. Looking
at your earlier post I see the following:

I note that you do not have a conditional page master reference for a
page that is not the first page and is blank. You expressly indicate
in your choice that the two conditional pages must be "not-blank" to
be used. Therefore, you don't have any available page master to use
for your blank page.
I'm surprised you didn't get an error message along the lines of
"cannot find an available page master for this page" ... you should
have. Since you didn't, I guess the formatter you are using is
arbitrarily picking a page geometry to use that is giving you the
appearance you are seeing.
If you include in your set of choices a combination of conditions
that provides for blank pages, then you should get what you want. Is
there a reason you have blank-or-not-blank="not-blank" or can that
now be removed so that you do have an available page master for a blank page?
I hope this helps.
