I was assured by CX phone sales that my US-origination allowance would apply the whole way (2nd leg is on KA; by itself it would have a 30kg allowance rather than 2 bags) even though I was going to be in HKG for over 24 hours. I don't trust phone sales staff, though.
My booking confirmation e-mail also says 2 bags to final destination, but this e-mail was sent by AA and not CX, so once I am in HKG, CX could refuse to honor it.
In short, I too am interested in definitive answers to the OP's question.
