In my template, I have layouts in the slide master that are left or right justified. When I insert a page into a new course from the template, the text justification looks correct, but after I enter text, the text center justifies.
Are you able to see that the correct slide master is also being pulled over when you insert a slide based on a template? Is the next not then able to be centered manually or it just comes in wrong at first? Just trying to get a better sense of when/how this happens. Have you already confirmed to be working locally as described here?
If you're still having difficulty and have confirmed to be working locally could you share a sample so that we could see how you have this set up and try to replicate the behavior?
I solved the problem; the slide master held multiple text placeholders with left, right, and center alignment. After some testing, I found that Storyline behaves erratically (i.e., text in left aligned placeholder jumps center after text entry) when too many placeholders with varying alignment are on the slide master.
I was able to successfully insert 3 text placeholders; 2 left aligned and 1 right aligned. I used regular text fields on the slide level, which the developer has to block first to make changes.

Thanks Glenn for sharing the update here and I'm glad you were able to get this working as you needed.
