That may have been the case, in some way or other, before firmware 1.5. Now:
If A is on, IS is on. Auto, Vertical or Horizontal.
Then:
If B is off, IS is only on, briefly, when the shutter is activated.
If B is on, IS turns on with half press, and remains on until either:
the shutter closes after activation
or
pressure on the button is released.
If A is off, IS is off. B does nothing.
B off is fine for most use. B on is really necessary for accurate framing with
long lenses and for magnified MF with
most lenses, other than on a solid tripod. After some experimentation, some of
which was with earlier firmware, I just
leave it on.
