For kepubs, the cover image in the book is marked as a cover and extracted. That is one of the things the KoboTouchExtended driver does when changing the book to a kepub, it adds an extra property attribute that the device is expecting to the image marked as a cover. But, if there is no image correctly marked as a cover, that doesn't happen. As you are editing the books to fix this, it means the cover was not marked properly for the driver to see and hence the device to use.

Thank you for the clear answer.
For the ones protected by DRM, I will probably delete them from the Kobo, temporarily disable KTE and use KT, then send them that way. (I had to do that once for a book that simply couldn't be transferred with KTE. To be fair, that was just once, and the cover wasn't really an issue there.)
