I tried that just in case as it was an obvious possibility; no difference.
The manual makes no connection between them that I saw.

My A8 manual says they come on together with rear window heater, A6 that they come on depending on outside temperature

In a lot of Audis you also have to have the mirror adjust button turned to centre rather than left or right mirror otherwise they wont heat when the rear screen heater is on either

That's a bit devious!
Mines almost permanently on left (for the reverse dip), so I'll try that.
Not today though, 10C here already!
