The dynamic material instance doesnt work on Niagara mesh particles, no parameters will change via Blueprint.  
Is there a workaround?

Issue: UE-59923

I also have this issue. I can scrub in the Sequencer but in PIE mode ore rendered movie the dynamic changes are not happening.  
UE4.26 Preview 7 Windows.
