The reason for the issue is currently still investigated.

In the meantime, a short hint and possible workaround: The .DAE file that is contained in the KMZ contains

  <library_images>
    <image id="tex-a6dc832b-d23c-4527-a583-bb68d7dcc1f9">
      <init_from>scenebnb/Unnamed-10.png</init_from>
    </image>
    ....

But these images are not contained in a scenebnb subdirectory. Instead, they are contained in the same directory as the DAE file.

After changing these image references to

  <library_images>
    <image id="tex-a6dc832b-d23c-4527-a583-bb68d7dcc1f9">
      <init_from>Unnamed-10.png</init_from>
    </image>
...

(i.e. omitting the scenebnb/ part), the asset could be tiled successfully.

This is only a workarodund for now. There is some ResourceMap in the KML that may be relevant here, but until these details are sorted out, you could at least generate a valid tileset when the input DAE is modified accordingly.
