Bitcoin Core exhibits addresses that Electrum says do not belong to my pockets (imported MPK by way of EPS). What’s going on?

I received a full node (pruned) up and operating with Bitcoin Core by way of Tor. I put in Electrum Private Server (EPS) and related my {hardware} pockets with Electrum by way of Tor. I generated a watch-only pockets in Bitcoin Core of my {hardware} pockets by offering the grasp public key within the config.ini file (no different grasp public keys, solely the one in all my {hardware} pockets as proven on Electrum). All the things works: I get the inexperienced circle in Electrum, saying I am related to (solely) my very own node, and I can watch my pockets in Bitcoin Core.

Nevertheless, Bitcoin Core’s “receiving addresses” present addresses that don’t belong to my pockets in keeping with Electrum. I attempted to ship a check quantity to one of many addresses in Bitcoin Core that weren’t proven in Electrum. This transaction now exhibits in Bitcoin Core as belonging to one in all my watch-only addresses however doesn’t present in Electrum. The ismine(“deal with”) command in Electrum returns false. I can also’t signal messages with the deal with in Electrum with my {hardware} pockets related as Electrum says the deal with would not belong to the pockets.

I double checked that just one MPK is talked about in EPS’s config.ini file, and I additionally created a brand new pockets in Bitcoin Core and resynced the EPS. Similar downside: my pockets now exhibits a unique quantity in Bitcoin Core (together with the abovementioned deal with) than in Electrum (excluding that deal with). Bitcoin Core is displaying many different addresses that aren’t current in Electrum, in addition to this one which I despatched a check transaction to.

How is that this doable? The Bitcoin Core pockets has personal keys disabled + clean pockets and is called “electrumpersonalserver”, so it ought to be devoted to EPS and since I solely imported and grasp public key, should not it include solely addresses derived from that one grasp public key?

Is the difficulty that Bitcoin Core has derived an deal with from my grasp public key that Electrum hasn’t generated but? However I would assume that Electrum ought to recognise all addresses that belong to the pockets (and ismine returned false and I can not signal messages with the deal with in my Electrum pockets because it says the deal with would not belong to the pockets). Or should not I’ve imported the grasp public key via the EPS config.ini file (and reasonably imported it via the Bitcoin Core console)?

I might be very grateful for any assist and insights into what is going on on right here. Many thanks prematurely!
