Since you use Form authentication, can you explain more about how you
implement IPrincipal.IsInRole and Application_AuthenticateRequest?
Normally, we need grant roles in Application_AuthenticateRequest like:

Sub Application_AuthenticateRequest(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
EventArgs)
        if (not(HttpContext.Current.User is Nothing)) then
            if HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.AuthenticationType = "Forms" then
                Dim id as System.Web.Security.FormsIdentity
                id = HttpContext.Current.User.Identity
        
                Dim MyRoles(2) As String
                MyRoles(0) = "Manager"
                MyRoles(1) = "Admin"
                HttpContext.Current.User = new
System.Security.Principal.GenericPrincipal(id,MyRoles)
            End if
        End if
        End sub
