That said, thank you for your advice and I will certainly look at the classical positioning. I don't use a strap, but maybe I need to. My acoustics are Grand Auditorium and dreadnaught sized.

I think if you stand up and use a strap your guitar will pretty much just hang to your right side... the way you describe your electric guitar's position. If you really dont want to stand, I'd try using a higher seat, like a bar stool, as well as a strap. Once you get your guitar hanging on the strap rather than sitting on your lap I think it will just naturally position itself in the manner you describe.
