Fact: When ( any ) main gear compressed the FLIGHT spoilers are raised and when the RIGHT main gear compresses the GROUND spoilers are raised.

My thoughts: Hence if you land left main first it results in a soft touchdown and the hesitation in the spoilers is the waiting time for the right gear to compress and raise the ground spoilers.
