Hello Erik, It is true that not all of the UCSC Genes' track transcripts will have a HUGO identifier. There is no work around - the assignment just has not been made. (The track description methods explains about the different inputs).
What may help is using the best mapping table for this particular ID: kgProtAlias. Please see this prior Q/A for the details: https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/pipermail/genome/2010-March/021453.html Hopefully this helps you to focus on the data that will be most useful. Please feel free to contact the mailing list support team again if you would like more assistance.
