Does it also work if you use the following?

\definecolor
    [backcol]
    [s=1,a=1,t=0.95]

While it works in the sense that it gives a consistent look, it
doesn't really lead to the desired result, at least not for me. The
reason for using background colour in my case was to make text
"visible" on a dark background photo. It doesn't really help if the
main text gets hidden behind the semi-transparent layer.

Unless you get different results than I do.
