$ state.go does not work with promise

Question

I am trying to perform a basic security check to block users from accessing certain states depending on their set of permissions:

'use strict';

var autoExecApp = angular.module("myApp", ['ui.router']);

autoExecApp.config(['$stateProvider', '$urlRouterProvider', function($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider){
    $stateProvider
        .state('index', {
            url: '/index',
            templateUrl: 'partials/index.html'
        })
        .state('permission', {
            url: '/permission',
            templateUrl: 'partials/permissions.html'
        });
}]);

autoExecApp.run(['$rootScope', '$state', '$userRoles', function($rootScope, $state, $userRoles) {

    $rootScope.$on('$stateChangeStart', function (event, toState, toParams) {

        event.preventDefault(); // prevent page from being loaded anyway
        $userRoles.hasPermissions(toState.name).then(function(data) {
            var result = data === "true";
            if (!result) {
                $state.go('permission');
            }
            else {
                $state.go(toState.name, toParams ,{notify:false});
            }
        });
    });
}]);

Now the problem is that my state change happens inside the promise. I would love to do it synchronously - as it really should be in this case, but I'm confused why it doesn't work asynchronously.

event.preventDefault() , . 2 . -, , "" ( ). , , $on , , .

EDIT: , :

event.preventDefault();
$state.go(toState.name, toParams, {notify: false}).then(function() {
     // line 907 state.js
     $rootScope.$broadcast('$stateChangeSuccess', toState, toParams, fromState, fromParams);
});

$rootScope.$on('$stateChangeStart', function (event, toState, toParams) {

    event.preventDefault(); // prevent page from being loaded anyway
    $userRoles.hasPermissions(toState.name).then(function(data) {

        if (!result) {

            $rootScope.$broadcast('goToPermission');
        }
        else {
            $rootScope.$broadcast('goToState', toState.name);
        }
    });
});

autoExecApp.run(['$rootScope', '$state', '$userRoles', function($rootScope, $state, $userRoles) {
    // Create a permissions cache, seeded with 
    // permission to go to the 'permission' state.
    var permissionCache = {
        'permission': true
    };

    // Create a researched list of all possible state names.
    var stateNames = ['stateA', 'stateB', 'stateC'];

    // Now load the cache asynchronously with 
    // `true` for each permission granted.
    stateNames.forEach(function(state) {
        $userRoles.hasPermissions(state).then(function(data) {
            if(data === "true") {
                permissionCache[state] = true;
            }
        });
    });

    // And finally, establish a $stateChangeStart handler 
    // that looks up permissions **synchronously**, 
    // in the permissionCache.
    $rootScope.$on('$stateChangeStart', function (event, toState, toParams) {
        if (!permissionCache[toState.name]) {
            event.preventDefault(); // prevent page from being loaded
            $state.go('permission');
        }
    });
}]);

          return deferred.promise;

$rootScope.$on('$stateChangeError',
  function (event, toState, toParams, fromState, fromParams, rejection) {

    if (rejection.error === 'unauthorized') {
      $state.go('permission');
    }
