Confirmed. I wish it worked, but there are fundamental reasons why it does not. ox-odt is basically incompatible with `org-export-to-file' and `org-export-to-buffer'. It implements its own semi-rewrite of these functions. See `org-odt-export-to-odt'. The whole problem is because ox.el has no handles to export to multiple files, as ox-odt requires. Maybe we can fix this in future, when we get multi-file export as discussed in https://list.orgmode.org/orgmode/ZoUdiTfbYqzPwTiX@orm-t14s/ -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode maintainer, Learn more about Org mode at <https://orgmode.org/>.
