I have not looked at the source but I believe g_saltbr looks through the
topology and lists all possible charge groups. It then analyzes the
trajectory and outputs interactions between charge groups within the cutoff.
The default cuttoff is 1000 nm so every charge group interaction should be
accounted for.

Now that being said, I think I found the bug. I created a subset trajectory
and tpr file that only included the ARG,LYS,APS,GLU residues. When I run
g_saltbr on the trajectories containing all the residues this bug goes
away.
