User is active only applies to the current computer. If the other is inactive BOINC will run on it. If both are inactive BOINC should run on both.

Go to your general preferences, edit preferences, Do work while computer is in use? Yes.
Update preferences, open Boinc Manager on both computers, Projects tab, click on Seti@Home project once, click on Update.

They won't suspend now.

If they are set to the same venue, they are using the same preferences. To check that, go to the project preferences on both computers. Check what it says at Default computer location. If they are both the same venue (home, work or school) and the "do work while computer is in use" is set to no in the General preferences, then both computers will use that preference (if properly updated).
