Hi the link you gave us is a package containing only a cube with one material on it.
Do you have link to a package with the whole project? If you do not want to share publicly you can PM it to me.

I just checked it out and it seems the issue occurs because the Support + Dortoir material is using a specular material with a transmission pin set to non-zero.
The specular material in octane allows for light transmission through the surface (Usefull for creating glass).

To solve the issue I advice you to switch your specular materials over to the glossy material (These also support specular highlights and reflection).
What you can also do is set the transmission pin to 0.
