Transparent block still has ambient occlusion

I'm attempting to create custom stained glass, but for some reason it is stuck with ambient occlusion enabled.
"Transparent parts" and "Connected parts" are both set to true, and "Texture transparency type" is set to "Translucent". I'm pretty sure this should disable ambient occlusion, but it does not, for some reason.

Currently, my only solution is to lock the code and manually turn this behavior off on every block like this. It would be nice to know if there is any other way to fix this

Might not be the only way, but it works if you just make the block extend from the TransparentBlock class instead of the Block class.
