I'm trying to get going with fava-envelope. 

The problem: Budget envelopes show up as expected but I'm not seeing 
activities show up as I expected they would.

My expectations were:
1. The following ledger entries would show up in the Expenses:Food row as 
-175, reducing the amount available to 1225. It's clear these transactions 
are being seen and processed by the extension but the Expense postings 
aren't being counted as budget activities for reasons that elude me.

2. I did not expect to see a Assets:US:Schwab:Checking row, since I haven't 
declared it as a budget account.

Here are the only transactions in the ledger:
2024-06-02 * "Groceries"
Assets:US:Schwab:Checking -150 USD
Expenses:Household:Groceries 150 USD
2024-06-04 * "Dining Out"
Assets:US:Schwab:Checking -100 USD
Expenses:Household:DiningOut 100 USD


And here are my fava-envelope declarations:
2020-01-01 custom "envelope" "start date" "2024-06"
2020-01-01 custom "envelope" "months ahead" "12"

2020-01-01 custom "envelope" "budget account" "Expenses:*"

2024-06-01 custom "envelope" "mapping" "Expenses:Household:Groceries" 
"Expenses:Food"
2024-06-01 custom "envelope" "mapping" "Expenses:Household:DiningOut" 
"Expenses:Food"
2024-06-01 custom "envelope" "mapping" 
"Expenses:Household:Automotive:Maintenance" "Expenses:Cars"
2024-06-01 custom "envelope" "mapping" 
"Expenses:Household:Automotive:Insurance" "Expenses:Cars"
2024-06-01 custom "envelope" "mapping" "Expenses:Household:Automotive:Gas" 
"Expenses:Cars"

2024-06-01 custom "envelope" "allocate" "Expenses:Food" 1400
2024-06-01 custom "envelope" "allocate" "Expenses:Cars" 500

Can someone please help me correct the unexpected behavior? I'm assuming 
I'm making mistakes in my declarations.

Thank you!
