Further to Howard's email, I've neveer really understood the multiple link arrangements for templates with the two places in the 'Templates and Add-ins' dialog and also via the Format(>Theme)>Style Gallery route, but I usually link to the same template in each location. With that I have had very stable and effective operation. I vaguely recall fixing loss of shortcut key problems via the Style Gallery option. Could be wrong 'cos I haven't had the problem for ages.
