2011 R350
Rear Entertainment Center Console Aux Input

I am hoping someone else on this forum can confirm my findings with the center console aux input. My wife and I have a 2011 R350 with the rear DVD system. I hooked an iPod up to the RCA inputs under the center armrest. Video works fine. Plays through both screens. The issue I am having is I cannot get the audio to play through the main speakers from the aux input. The wireless headphones work, but not the Command audio. I have tried the aux and rear options with no success.

Is this standard behavior or should the aux audio from the center armrest input come through the main stereo?

Thanks!

2006 R350
I have an 06' R350.. I connect my phone to the rear console by using a RCA to 3.5mm cable, and then turn on that video display. On my Command unit, I switch to AUX input and audio works fine.
