Once again, when you check out a book from your library and sync it to your Kobo KA1 or app, the book is not supplied by the library but rather from the Kobo bookstore. The DRM on those books is Kobo's proprietary scheme and not the Adobe ADEPT DRM used when you download books from your library using an .acsm file which is then opened and fulfilled by ADE or other program.

It should not be a surprise that a program using ADEPT DRM is not able to open an book using a different DRM scheme.
