I had this problem.  I found I had to explicitly set it to something
using the customisation interface.  Resetting to standard (which I
assume means reverting) didn't work for me either.  If you set something
and save for future use, you should find a custom-set-faces entry in
your .emacs or wherever your customisations get stored.
