Making a background transparent

Difficult to say without seeing the image. Possibly the white background of the logo has not been made transparent. Or you are exporting as jpg - jpg does not support transparency.

"alpha layer" is ambiguous. There is a transparent layer; or there is an alpha channel.
If the "Add alpha channel" is grayed out it means that there already is an alpha channel.

If there is no alpha channel there cannot be transparency.
If there is an alpha channel there may be transparency, but there doesn't have to be.
When you Export choose a format that supports transparency. jpg does not support transparency, png does.
