Exported MP4 Alpha Channel Video Transparency not showing in FCP

I exported an animation from Motion to mp4 with the Export Movie dialog Color channels set to "Color + alpha". The result is a file with a default black background color. I believe the alpha channel is not encoded to the mp4 since Scoop! returns the line:


Chroma subsampling : 4:2:0


Motion project properties tab says:


Background: Transparent


And I thought I did as I should, but did I forget some extra setup in Motion before exporting?


FCP 10.5.4

Motion 5.5.3
