I just tried it with crate. When you import a singleframe alembic it seems there
is no expression to the timecontrol anymore so you have to relink it. Also you
have to change the alembic path in 2 places (alembic_polymesh and
alembic_polymesh_topo). After doing that [frame #4 +10] is working for me.
 
cheers,
Thomas
