It appears that you're doing the reverse, but one can never be too sure .

And to expand on what @pazos said, do you see an lpath entry for those books in the metadata file?
Reading that linked thread, scenario 2 fits exactly what I'm doing

Quote:
Scenario 2: Sending book from calibre to Kobo via USB when nickel is open

Exit koreader
Nickel is running
Connect USB
Send new book from Calibre to main memory
Check file on root of kobo: metadata.calibre: The new book gets an new entry there
Eject Kobo from Calibre
Nickel shows import dialog
Open Koreder
Go to file explorer: New book is there as a file
Connect Kobo again via USB

OK: Check metadata.calibre: The entry for the new book is still there.
OK: In Calibre the book is shown as existing on device in library (Green check mark)
EXCEPT that the books are not showing up in KOReader when I do a Calibre metadata search. A check confirmed that they do all have a "path" entry in metadata.calibre
