Not sure how DFW-HKG helps if you are trying to avoid an overnight in HKG and instead want an overnight flight for a 10am connection.

Once CX calls back just outline the fact that you don't accept their forced overnight unless they pay the hotel. At that point since there is only 1 DPS a day you might find them willing to open up LA or JFK inventory (more likely with the greater number of flights versus SFO).
