Thank's for creating the example. What it looks like to me is you've created the subgraph prior to main compile traversal with the subgraph still detatched, and prior to assigning the compile traversal to the Builder, so there is no way for the subgraph to have it's Vulkan objects initialized.

Try creating the the object in the main loop, also I'd recommend putting such additions to the scene graph before/after the update() rather after present, it's it's cleaner to batch updates the scene graph together.

Thanks for the hints. I tried to make the changes you proposed, but it didn't help.
