I have been using the following documentation as a guide:
https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtqml-writing-a-module.html
I will try to reproduce the problem basing myself on this. In case I need to submit a bug report what is the category?

You need to do the plugin linking dance which uses additional .o files ("object library" in CMake lingo) to pull in the resource initialization. That's because linkers "optimize" the resources out if you don't. We can't do much about this.

I have also seen this in the previous link and even that I have successfully made it link with the Q_IMPORT_QML_PLUGIN declaration, no resources were available.
More on this later. I will start from the scratch with an example.
Thank you!
Best,
