Normal links becomes footnotes links in epub made with Calibre

Don't know if it is Kobo related or (more probably) epub related. BTW, I noticed on this device.

So, Kobo has the footnote preview popup feature. Kinda useful.
I'm converting (semi-manually) an html book into an epub book using Calibre.
I split any single chapters in a different .xhtml file. There are several links with anchors between sections (it's a gamebook). So, e.g, in file ch1.xhtml I have
Code:
<a id="sect003">Section 3</a>
and in file ch3.xhtml the link that goes there
Code:
<a href="ch1.xhtml#sect003">Go to section 3</a>
What happens is that these links are seen as footnotes link by Kobo, so jumping around the book is kind of tedious.
I will make further tests, and try to attach a minimal example .epub with this problem.
In the meanwhile, can someone point out which links (format, id name, ...) are seen as "footnotes link" by Kobo?
Also, if it is epub-related, is there any option to set (in metadata?) to disable the footnote-links feature?

Thanks!
