I don't think either of you answered the question. Well, maybe, but "shifter" is a little confusing. My A6 is a shifter.
An MN6 is a manual transmission, and if you'll look at your owner's manual, it tells you that you must push the memory button on the door for the seats and steering wheel to assume your programmed driving position.
2007 owner's manual, page 11.
To recall a memory position, do one of the
following:
• If you have an automatic transmission vehicle,
press and release the desired button 1 or 2
while the vehicle is in PARK (P).
A single beep will sound and the memory
position will be recalled after a brief delay.
If the vehicle is not in PARK (P), three beeps
will sound and the memory position will
not be recalled.
• If you have a manual transmission vehicle,
press and release the desired button 1 or 2.
If the vehicle is on, the parking brake needs to
be set to recall the memory position.
A single beep will sound and the memory
position will be recalled after a brief delay.
If the vehicle is on and the parking brake is not
set, three beeps will sound and the memory
position will not be recalled.

Ah, yes I did see that in the manual but had a senior moment. Why in the world would GM make it different than the Automatic is beyond me.
What's annoying is that the handbrake must be set for the memory set-up to work.
I can't see the safety reason behind this at all.

On a manual tranny car, they don't want the seat moving while you're trying to hold the clutch in to keep the car from jumping into gear. Might not matter to some folks, but if you've got the seat positioned where you can just barely use the clutch anyway . .
