I tried to reproduce like this:
Open the document provided by the reporter. Select the first paragraph from the new chapter 3. Apply Drop cap style. Edit that style and choose from the Drop cap tab: Display drop caps. Everything seems fine in the document. Save. Reload. The drop cap style is gone. Check "Display drop caps". It is not checked any more.
