Thumbs down Mismatch between Calibre and Kindle

CONTEXT:

I have around 2000 ebooks (documents, not purchased) on a Kindle, duly synchronized with the Amazon cloud.

These very ebooks are also in my Calibre library.

Most of these documents are in Spanish, so some of them have special accents in the titles.

THE PROBLEM:

When I connect my Kindle to Calibre, I notice that only the ebooks whose titles have no special accents are recognized as being in both the Kindle and the Calibre library.

EXAMPLE:

If I connect the Kindle device to Calibre, the ebook further below is shown as only on my Calibre library but not my Kindle:

La desaparición de los rituales - Byung-Chul Han

Notice the accent on the second word "ó."

I know for a fact that I have that document on my Kindle since I read it on it.

This also happens to every single ebook that has an accent as described before.

QUESTION:

Is there any way to fix this? I use Calibre as a backup library, and I need to know what books I might have on my Kindle but not in my Calibre library. Without being able to check the matches accurately, the task is becoming difficult.
