That being said, I have never heard of a theme which this kind of behavior:
"I have set my front page display as my static homepage. I want this page to also be where my posts go .."
There is only one running page for posts in any blog. With the other themes we make a one or the other choice. Either we have posts on the front page (dynamic) or we have a static front page. We make that choice here > Settings > Reading
Front page displays
__Your latest posts
A static page (select below)
* Front page:
* Posts page:
That's my 2 cents and I'll leave it to your to use the Premium Themes Forum
