Dual passports - transit in the US

Hi All,

I am traveling from HKG to Buenos Aires transiting via the USA.

With API, I was told that I can only check-in with one passport. I plan on checking in with my Canadian passport so that I don't need a US transit visa. However, my flight from the US to EZE is on the same itinerary. Would it be an issue if I show my Hong Kong passport to enter Argentina which would not match with the APIS details? I want to avoid paying the reciprocity fee for Canadian citizens. Vice-versa, would it be an issue if I use my HK passport at check-in and present my Canadian passport at US Immigration for transit cause I would need a US transit visa if I were just to use the HK passport? I don't want to be denied boarding. Thanks a lot.
