Tax free interest on 1040

I am not sure where the tax free interest number on my 1040 is coming from.  I have clicked the magnifying glass which takes me to the Smart Worksheet, but the Smart Worksheet does not match the number on my 1040.  It is the number I expected. The amount on the 1040 is higher than the Smart Worksheet.  Is this a glitch or where is the additional money coming from? I don't see the difference labelled as tax free interest in any of my 1099's either.

    1040 line 2a could come from a 1099INT box 8 or a 1099Div box 12 and maybe a K-1 form.   Did you import any 1099 forms?
