Sideloaded ePubs / Covers / non calibre

I consider myself a knowledgeable Kobo and calibre user but there is something that is a mystery too me.

I tend to sideload a lot of content to my Libra Colour from Google Drive; content that I've done a "Save to disc" from calibre. This is due to the majority of my computer work is done on a ChromeBook that has calibre installed on the Linux side.

While the ChromeBook does allow sharing of an USB attached device to Linux it appears as /mnt/chromeos/removable/KOBOeReader and the USB device info is not shared.

What I find though is that the Kobo does not always display the cover of the sideloaded content while sleeping, while it does display a thumb nail in the My Books view.

Any suggestions?
