Hi Chris, maybe I cannot follow exactly what you are trying to do, but when I start emacs -q and evaluate (setq-default TeX-master nil) and then open a new file test.tex, then I get the same prompt "Master file:".
so maybe, if you do not want to get prompted, you could try setting (setq-default TeX-master t).
