I was having the same problem, and finally solved it after reading the online manual and futzing with it for about 30 minutes.

1. Go to BT AUDIO mode.

2. hit MENU

3. Choose SETTINGS, then choose DETAILED SETUP

4. Under DETAILED SETUP, choose BLUETOOTH/HF AUDIO

5. Under BLUETOOTH/HF AUDIO, change the setting from FRONT to ALL

6. PRESTO! Sound from all speakers!

Hope this helps. GOOD LUCK!
