If the police conduct an search of a home after being met at the door and denied access, and the police do not at that time know you are on probation, the fourth amendment waiver does not apply. Police have specific procedures they must follow in a fourth amendment waiver search, and if they do not know you are on probation then by definition they cannot comply with those procedural requirements, part of which entail verifying that the location they are searching isn't under the control of a third party (e.g. another person's home).

Police have tried to justify an illegal search of a location by simply later noting that one person on the premises was subject to fourth amendment waiver. Judges have uniformly rejected this argument when it defendants challenge such searches, but often probationers are bamboozled by the D.A. into believing the police were authorized and thus don't challenge the search. If left unchallenged, judges typically let it slide.
