Base Layer objects no longer visible behind New Layers

Noticed this happening in a Storyline build a couple weeks ago, worked around it. Now it's blocking my success with a build today. When I make a new layer it blocks out the items on the layer below. That is not how it has worked before, and I have frequently had items in other modules that came in on new layers that interplayed with items on base layer. Now you can't see anything below. I can find no buttons that let me turn the base layer back on, or preference to have or not have an opaque layer base.

    It looks like your fix is still helping people, years later-thanks, Ben! I was going mad trying to figure out what was going on.

    Oooh, helped me as well, thanks - but my issue was the Visibility setting on the Base layer. Gotta love this community!
