[Tex/LaTex] Alignment near left margin in beamer

beamerhorizontal alignmentlists

I'm trying to get beamer to have the same left margin for itemize environments and normal text (and for the symbols in the itemize environment to be aligned with the slide title). That is, I want a slide to look like:

Slide title

A line that is outside an itemize environment

o A first line that is inside an itemize environment

o A second line that is inside an itemize environment

But when I get the symbols of the itemize environment aligned with the title, the non-itemized lines have zero margin, i.e., they are right on the slide edge. The following MWE reproduces this:

\documentclass{beamer}

\setbeamersize{text margin left=0em,text margin right=1em}

\begin{document}

\begin{frame}[t]
  \frametitle{Test}
  Hello
  \begin{itemize}
    \item Hello again
  \end{itemize}  
\end{frame}

\end{document}

Thanks for any help.

Are you perhaps after something like this?

\documentclass{beamer}

%\setbeamersize{text margin left=1em,text margin right=1em}
\setlength{\leftmargini}{1em}
\setbeamertemplate{itemize item}[circle]
\setbeamertemplate{frametitle}
{
\raggedright\insertframetitle%
}

\usepackage{lipsum}
\begin{document}

\begin{frame}[t]
  \frametitle{Test}
  Hello
  \begin{itemize}
    \item Hello again
  \end{itemize}  
  \lipsum[2]
\end{frame}

\end{document}
