Describe the bug / provide steps to reproduce it

Difficult to rep, but the screencap of mached.PNG in a reproducer repo shows that "BIG needles" is flagged as an existence match several times, but on line 15 it is not matched.

You can rep the issue by cloning https://github.com/mikemckiernan/troubleshoot-vale, and then running vale --config ./.vale.ini ./Needle.rst. Line 15 is not included in the response.

I've spent some time trying to narrow this down more. Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with the code or much with Go.

I did step through some of the code in the VS Code debugger and can say that an alert object is created on lint.go:283, but it's somehow discarded by subsequent processing that I haven't noodled through.

Thanks for the report.

This is caused by the TOC inserting content into the generated HTML that doesn't exist in the source document.

It should be fixed in the next release.

Cool, TY! Is there a branch that has the fix?

Closing.
