I've noticed similar. Harder efforts gets things split evenly, versus cruising is just whatever. My cadence changes quite a bit as well, though, with very hard efforts generally at 100 rpm+, threshold at 95+, and z2 in the 80s. When I want to go hard, it seems I default to whatever gets me the most watts, and apparently that's both legs spinning.
