OEBB; Vienna to Prague; Prague to Vienna

I tried to book round trip tickets on the OEBB website to take a Railjet train from Vienna to Prague; Prague to Vienna. The first leg from Vienna to Prague allowed me to reserve a seat AND to select my actual seat. The return trip from Prague to Vienna also allowed me to reserve a seat, however, it did not give me the option of selecting my actual seat. I test-tried this journey on other dates just to see if there is a problem with the date I chose, but it appears that none of the Prague to Vienna routes allow you to selct your actual seat on a Railjet train. I e-mailed OEBB, but they never replied. Does anyone in this forum know the answer to this question?

The eShop is not very clear and a little bit confusing, but the first search page has the option of »Supplementary services, reservation«. Further on in the process you have the option »Seat reservation on train«. Selecting that gives you the possibility of selecting your seats with the help of a carriage plan. The train direction wasn't clear to me.
