The Bot protection is seperate from the F5 ASM security policies and they being in Transperant mode does not affect the Bot Protection as the Bot Protection has its own Transperant mode:

Maybe you need to test if the two bot protection profiles are in transperant mode if the issue will be still there as in Transperant mode the Bot is still marked and maybe the othe Bot Protection is stopping it.
