In a TOC, the formatting of the entries is controlled by the TOC styles. In this case, it appears to be the TOC 1 style. It has a differennt Left and Right Indent that the TOC 2 style.

It is also possible that the Indent for your Heading 2 style (which should be set in the define New MultiLevel List dialog, is different.
