Doors and windows missing from IFC model (Revit - Archicad interoperability)

I have an IFC file from a model that was created with the modeling software Archicad 26 and was exported to IFC4 (Reference View). I linked the file in a new Revit project, binded and then ungrouped the model. I have these issues:

1. Openings are shown as generic models. There are "void" boxes coming trough windows and doors in 3D view. Doors are IFC parameter "IFCDoorType"  and Windows are "IFCOpeningElements". 

2. Once I export as IFC I am getting a warning pop-up about missing doors and windows. When I open the IFC file in BIM Vision, all of the doors and windows are missing and I only see the clear wall openings. 

Why are openings imported to Revit as generic models and what might be causing the missing doors/windows issue?
