I suspect that the web browser files are different from the ones you get via USB, otherwise the Fire's behavior is hard to understand. That is why I suggested checking the files from the web browser.

I have also seen one report that ebook filenames with spaces in them can cause problems on the Fire. Even it they don't seem to have spaces, try renaming a web-browser ebook file (via the USB connection) to something simple (still .mobi) and see if it is then recognized correctly.
