Can you share your file? The message you are seeing (setup-sheet viewer) has nothing to do with the issue you are dealing with.

 

File > Export > Save to local folder, return to thread and attach the .f3d file in your reply

I suspect that if you turn on Tool Orientation and select the hole as your Z axis, that will produce a toolpath. There may be some slight misalignment going on

This issue is that the holes are not perfectly inline with the actual part. It's such a small value, it's silly:

The solution in this case is to use Tool Orientation to bring them inline. 

 

We created a ticket some time ago to open up the allowable tolerance deviation. I hope to see this solved at some point in the future.

 

And no, the holes aren't all off the same amount. These 5 are in-line with the part, when I use "Select Z and X axis" for the alignment at the Setup level:
