@cderv Okay, so I've tried making both a new, clean project, this didn't work. I get the exact same errors.

And in my tex-file I can see, that Latex still doesn't recognize my tex-file as a beamer-class, but still produces a tex-file with documentclass: article:

I don' think you can reproduce my error, just by copying the rmd-script. I've tried to explain this in my post above.
@technocrat: Another user in my issue-post on stackoverflow, said he was able to reproduce this error by adding a explicit documentclass in the YAML-header. Please see the comments in this links: r - Error: ! Undefined sequence control \setbeamertemplate, trying render rmarkdown-file to beamer presentation - Stack Overflow
Somehow when knitting on my computer, the documentclass of beamer is changed to article.
It's very hard to make a script that can reproduce my error, as I dont know why the error happens. But clearly, your computer don't have the same compiling-troubles as mine, as you don't have any troubles recompiling.
I somehow get the sense, that there is some old package/dependency within my bin, that is interferering with the rendering of the rmd to beamer. But this is a wild guess, as I'm no expert and just can't get a grip of what it is...
Ideas:
