Thanks for the help, everyone. I did end up getting them to match. I don't remember what the last thing that I fixed was, but it definitely included checking all transfers were not coming out of a bucket, making sure that the applicable starting balances had buckets, etc. and eventually they matched. I agree that you are definitely safe if you are keeping your spending within your allocations, but having a big mismatch between what you have and what you thought you have is disconcerting!
