Sounds like a resolver issue. This is tricky, but not ambiguous.

C\2=C/C#C

indicates a trans connection ("down" to the other atom at connection 2; "up"
to the triple bond)

More explicitly you would have:

o...@h]1[c@H]/2[C@@]34N[C@@H]5C/C=C\C#C.C4CC1.C5CC3.C\2=C/C#C

but that first "/2" can be just "2" without any ambiguity.
