I have an app that has a transparency effect on it as well. >From what I have seen, doing this causes your app to have the same orientation policies as the visible app behind it... That is, if the app behind it is locked in portrait, then that is what your app will be. If it is locked in landscape, then your app will run in landscape. If it allows for rotation then your app will also rotate.
Due to the way Android handles rotation I don't think this behavior can be changed.
