It is probably normal and not a fault, but you'd have to ask Asus to confirm. Both Gigabyte and MSI say you must (not recommended, must) install RAM in slot 2, so perhaps for this platform they're specifically programmed to boot from this channel.

It's often confusing for ASUS to have unclear or unusual documentation. For example, EXPO II seems the right setting for RAM, while EXPO I appears to be a strange modification that wouldn't even function with my RAM. You'd think it should be the opposite, but I didn't pay much attention when setting up my rig since I only used two slots.
