I think maybe it's the Aura creating the covers when it needs to use the covers in the epubs...

Your both right.
With FW2.5.0, Kobo started to generate and save cover images for books on the SD card onto the SD card. But, they are generating them at a MUCH lower quality than for books in the main memory. I have no idea why they would even consider doing this.
The next calibre will handle this and allow you to send the covers over at the same time as the book. These will be much better quality.
