Its quite old, but the problem comes from Multilevel List numbering - a bug in Word!!!

If you define a Numbering (Heading) for your document, you may use a multilevel list. Enabling that option, you will adopt the style of the different headings accordingly. 99% of all users will use the ruler. Which works fine and all settings can be stored in STYLES, but those settings are not stored in the Multilevel List settings.

If you use now the Format Painter, it will re-apply all settings according the Multilevel List settings - it ignores all current settings.

Conclusion Styles and Multilevel List settings are not aligned. Multilevel List settings is always the master and you have to configure that in Multilevel List settings page. Have fun.
