you can use this code 

 getWindow().addFlags(
            WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_FOCUSABLE
                    | WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_TOUCH_MODAL
                    | WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_TOUCHABLE);

When you detect that the transparent area has been touched (which should trigger touch of the button below), then just call its touch/click handler.

Simplified code:

void btn1OnTouch()
{
    if (!transparent)
    {
        btn1Handler();
    }
    else
    {
        btn2Handler();
    }
}

void btn2OnTouch()
{
    btn2Handler();
}

void btn1Handler()
{
    //real job is done here
}

void btn2Handler()
{
    //real job is done here
}

Have you tried it this way?

If you can detect that the touch was on a transparent part, then return false from the OnTouchListener. That should pass the touch event down to the next view in that area.
