I've had that a number of times in Vue (4, 4 Pro and 5), with all types of atmospheres. I think the basic problem is that jpeg compression algorithms are petty badly suited to transmaps. They search first for close value pixels and average them. I've taken some jpg transmaps into a pixel editor and found no absolute black (total transparency), I suspect that Poser uses some kind of 'threshold' value.
