Ok, if you look at a 32 bit png in ascii near the start of the file then you'll spot the bKGD chunk, this defines the background and it looks like it also contains the alpha value. On a 24 bit png (no alpha) this value is not present...
The bKGD chunk may not be honoured in all viewers.
I don't know how this change may reflect on the final image but it might be worth a shot!

The bKGD chunk can be useful for decoders that ignore transparency so that they will display an appropriate background color. A 24-bit PNG would have no need of setting this property since all pixels have a known color and no transparency. I imagine this is why you don't see it in the 24-bit PNG.
