Question about A/C ductwork

We have a 2021 Cedar Creek 360rl.
This unit has a 15k a/c in the living room and a 13.5k in the bedroom. When the living room a/c is running and the bedroom unit is off, there is some cold air coming from the front bedroom air ducts.....is that normal?

One thing I have done since new is during the summer months. I will run the rear A/C at 70F at night and turn the fan to low speed. Shutting off the front A/C when we retire for the night. This way the front bed room will remain cool all night without running the front A/C unit which see can hear when sleeping.

My wife likes it cool, dark and quiet for sleeping at night. So,running the rear A/C satisfy her.

Man, I don’t know how y’all do it. I’ve got a 37mbh and have to keep both running full tilt all night to keep from getting warm in the bedroom. Of course, we both do like it very cold when we sleep…running rear air would definitely not work for us.

We are just the opposite. We run the bedroom on high fan and set to 64 at night. Winter or summer. This way we don't hear anything outside and sleep with the covers on. Unfortunately we got hooked on fan noise years ago and can't sleep without it.

I set the living room temp at 76 on cool in summer so it doesn't kick on. Or 65 on heat pump in cool temps so it doesn't get too cold.

I know, probably a bit out there.

Since the duct work is a race track and carries air from both acs I will during the day set the front ac to 68 or so with the fan set to lo and the rear ac at 75 or so with the fan set to auto.The front ac will keep it cool enough in the back that the rear ac seldom comes on thus less ac noise. Now in real hot temps this may mot work.

I do appreciate all the input regarding the a/c airflow. As usual, this a wonderful place for RV advice.

Will we do not travel to the hotter climates such as Texas and so forth in the summer months. We tend to stay in MI and WI during the summer months. We will travel south or west, but this is in the fall when it tends to be cooler.
