Have you applied the shader to the gpuCache node?

You can apply shaders to sub-objects in the alembic by using operators, https://support.solidangle.com/x/x447B

You will need to make sure "Export All shading Groups" is enabled in Render Settings -> System

no, I applied shader to the first ShadingEngine on first shape in gpu Cache

operators very interest, but I can see example how to make call subshape from gpuCache, and even more so how to assign the material specifically to this call
even in the example with materialx, which is not currently available, because maya does not know how to export in mtlx at the moment

Here's an example scene using operators to assign shaders and st parameters on the gpuCache

Is reassigning materials manually to objects the only way?
