This sounds like a book without a title page. In this case, the kobo reader will interpret the first chapter as a title page and format it strangely like you describe. I think there has to be several things wrong with the book for this to happen, but I don't recall the exact details.

The epub to epub conversion probably fixes multiple structural problems with that book, including the missing title page.

Gutenberg use to publish a lot of books like that and I had to fix them before I could read the first chapter sanely.
