Set the transparent bsdf to one color (solid white: 1, 1, 1...alpha is disregarded). For this shader to be truly "transparent," the color must be so.

enter image description here

Transparency color levels from left to right: 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 1 (yes, there is an invisible monkey on the end).

Here is the demo blend:

And here is a link to the transparent shader in the manual:
