Workaround

Setting the 'export_service' parameter of clone_items() to 'True' enables it to work but also clones the feature class to publish from. The OfflineContentManager can also clone it, either using the original feature class (e.g., a SD file) or a new feature class file if none is available (e.g., a FGDB).
