Using Optical Audio Input#1

When using optical audio input#1 from my cable box, sound from the receiver is output on the Front-A speakers only, not Front-B speakers. Can I configure the receiver so that optical audio can be heard from both Front-A & B. If so, how? I am not using the RCA audio out from the cable box. Would this do the trick?
