Your books bought from Kobo can be in these three states as far as the Kobo device is concerned: downloaded; archived; or deleted.

Calibre considers the book to be "on the device" if it is downloaded or archived. But the device says the book is "on device" only if it is downoaded.

I think what might be happening is that your Kobo books are archived, and Calibre considers them to be on the device so has matched them to books in your Calibre collection. You can check this on the Glo by tapping the spanner icon at the botom of the library listing and selecting "show all books", not sure how you do it on the Aura. This will show books that are archived as well as downloaded. The archived ones will have a "tap to download" item in their library listing.
