Why do you do a stylekeyoverride if you want to target your custom button? That's wrong usage here.

In case you wanted to base on button style, you need to use ControlTheme with BasedOn set accordingly.

Yes, by using StyleKeyOverride you told styling subsystem, that it should use "Button" as a style key.
Which is why "local|CustomButton" is not matching anymore.
