Información adicional

This is a known limitation of the graphics pipeline in ArcMap, which is based on Microsoft GDI. Vector layers can only have transparency applied by rasterizing them and blending them with other layers. As soon as a layer has a transparency of 1% or more, the layer becomes blended with other layers into an 'Image' in the PDF. This is one of the many reasons the new graphics engine in ArcGIS Pro was made. Try the same export in ArcGIS Pro and observe that the layers are retained even if transparent.

Solución alternativa

Set the transparency to zero.
