The problem is sonarr is running as my user and transmission-daemon is root

I usually make a dedicated user for torrent clients. Works well. This allows me to run multiple instances of transmission in the vm, for example. Manage them through systemd services.

You should reconsider running as root, if any vulnerabilities were exploited in transmission, You've lost everything.
