Found it: turns out OOo doesn't completely ignore the styles in the inserted documents. My "Title" style in some of the documents had a "Insert page break" in them. The master document's style with the same name did have a page break, yet the one in the subdocument was still being honoured. That's what was causing all my numbering issues.
