Yes, I can confirm this - I have never been aware of it (normally I work on Windows). Or is it a regression? (On my Linux-VMs I only have Laz/main).
I see that this happens only with gtk2, transparency works correctly in the qt5 and qt6 widgetsets, and even gtk3 is better (although red and blue channels are exchanged).
When I have some spare time I'd have to look into this issue whether it can be simplified for a bug report.
