I tried something similar using -1 as well as the above:
On server I set:
create function inc_id_cache() returns trigger as $inc$
begin
if NEW.id = NULL then    NEW.id := nextval('cache_id_seq');
end if;
return NEW;
end;
$inc$ language plpgsql;

create trigger inc before insert on cache for each row execute procedure 
inc_id_cache();


Now in both cases I get:
horsedata=# insert into remote_cache(name_id, entry_id) values (1, 8);
ERROR:  null value in column "id" violates not-null constraint
DETAIL:  Failing row contains (null, 1, 8, null).
CONTEXT:  Remote SQL command: INSERT INTO public.cache(id, name_id, 
entry_id, value) VALUES ($1, $2, $3, $4)
