Yes. You should use the -m flag to force syncing of a mailbox. From sync_client
manual:

--clip--
       -u     User mode.  Remaining arguments are list of users who should be replicated.
       -m     Mailbox mode.  Remaining arguments are list of mailboxes which should be replicated.
--clip--

A shared folder is not a user. It is a mailbox.

As a side note, if you have sieve script in the global namespace (that are
attached by the "/vendor/cmu/cyrus-imapd/sieve" annotation to certain shared
folders or other folders), the only way to replicate those that I know of is to
rsync them (or otherwise copy in the file system level).
