Short description of error
Cannot animate Object Info Color in Cycles with Persistent Data ticked

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Select the Cube
Open Shader Editor
Add Object Info
Link Object Info Color to Principled Base Color
Goto Object Settings
Keyframe Viewport Display > Color Red on frame 1, Green of frame 20
In EEVEE this works fine - the cube fades from red to green.
Swap to Cycles
Goto Viewport Shading
Drag the timeline or press play .... no changes to the colour!
In Render Properties tick Final Render > Persistent Data
Render an animation (you may want to make the animation end on frame 20 to save time) ... The cube does not change colour.

As I outline in https://youtu.be/o4IXviNtxzs?t=301 , there are advantages to animating Object Color to animate materials... it shows up in timelines, etc.bug - object info colour.blend
