It sounds like Vault isn't picking up the file edits and creating a pending change set item for your files. This happens often with some programs, like Microsoft Word, but Vault has always been able to pick up changes by Visual Studio's text editor in our testing.
You can check out the file before you edit it to cause Vault to examine the file's status in a different way. Checked out files are given a special examination on all refreshes; it would be inefficient and slow to examine all files in all working folders on every refresh, so we rely on Windows to notify us of changes. Sometimes we don't get that notification.
