I downloaded source and built transmission without systemd.

Started transmission-daemon and successfully downloaded a torrent
using transmission-remote.

If I then start transmission-gtk I get the same behavior as you.
The torrent doesn't start. I get no dbus error in terminal though.

If I kill transmission-daemon and restart transmission-gtk the torrent
starts.

I am not sure what setup you're after but transmission-gtk works without
transmission-daemon!?
