When using mix node with any translucent material I get this very unexpected behaviour (like on the second image).
When mixing with non-translucent I get no unexpected um... unexpectedness (like the first image).

You have to add some hdr as lighting.
edit: There should be certain angle of direct light, so I've added the second file with sun lamp

Does it also happen if you render on CPU?
I remember there was some difference between OpenCL and CPU regarding transparent materials + mix material.

I only render on CPU, so yes, it happens when I render on CPU.

My bad, sorry, I read "RT Path OCL" in your screenshot for some reason.
