Erik, I looked the the "chart" view. It only lists the account and the account_headings and all of the id's. No linking was apparent. There is no monetary data shown in the view, as there is when looking at reports->COA from the web interface.

If the intent of the report is to show monetary information, then providing a summation for the accounts under the heading make sense. In my case the "summation" appears to be just reflecting the amount from the account "id" that matches the account_heading "id".

I have been digging around and here is what I've found. in every case, where an amount is shown on a "heading", the "id" from the account_heading table matches the "id" from the account table. The id for the "1000 Current Assets" is 1. The "id" for "Checking Account" is 1. The "id" for "3300 Share Capital" is 6. The "id" for "1820 Office Equipment" is 6, etc.

It appears that there is a join between the "account" table and the "account_heading" table using "id" from each.

That's correct: in LedgerSMB 1.3, there's a "chart" view which does exactly what you describe. Maybe you could check that and see if it presents you with incorrect data? If that's the case, we at least know the cause.

The solution for the CoA report is probably not to use the 'chart' view, but that'd be the next step.
