Hi,
There are a lot of details missing in regard to your soft proofing.
For instance, you don't say how you are actually doing it,
ie. what profiles form the rendering chain for your soft proof,
what intents are used, or what CMM is being used. You are at
the mercy of all of those elements, + the way the profiles are set up.

This depends on the rendering intent - anything but absolute should give
the same white for both profiles, since the white will be the paper color.
