Hi everyone! I just wanted to let you know I found a bug. Setting up a scene with an HDRI and rendering is fine. But, after you save and close out of Maya and then try to open it back up the model is black on render. I was banging my head on this one but figured out a fix!

You need to select your HDRI sphere in the viewport and then switch it to the daylight system and then back to texture. Then everything works again.

Not sure why this is happening but just thought I would share my solution to this weird problem.

System:
Windows 10
EVGA GTX 670
Maya 2015
