[regression][GLES]: Cube plugin: Transparency for top and bottom faces broken

[MC Return]

[Test Case]

1. Enable the cube plugin
2. Enter the cube when switching workspaces
   -> Make sure that the top and bottom faces on the cube are transparent

[Regression Potential]

Visual regressions when using and displaying the cube plugin.

Original description:

Top and bottom caps of the cube are always solid, the transparency setting is ignored.
