I found some funkiness with trying to create multiple master slides that each have a different theme applied to them, or even to change the theme on master slides. Here is an example:

I did find when you import a PPT with a slide master and applied theme that does work. However, inserting a new slide master and trying to apply a theme in Storyline does not.
By way of follow up, I did find that if you go into the master slide area and right click on the theme you want, then select create new slide master, it will create new slide masters with that theme applied. Here is the example.
nice explanation on your video - thanks -- do you think then that once a master is in there we can't change the bullets for example -- I am having a heck of a time trying to add bullets to a master. I brought in a ppt file and the bullets seem to be gone/wrong so I am trying to fix them. Also as a little aside -- I can't find a ruler to help place indented tabs/bullets - also no luck. p.s. I'm new
Diane - I don't think Storyline supports custom bullets, or at least in any place that I can see. I created a Master template with custom bullet list icons, but Storyline only imported the text and used the default bullet points.
Thanks for that explanation. Easy workaround!... Had the same problem until now. ... the articulate community is so awesome. It`s fun and saves so much time!
