Should just happen.
Packages for i586 may not be replaced automatically until the next time there is an update for them, but where there is - it should grab the i686 package if there is a choice.

Take a look at /etc/rpm/platform. My system is an i686 and the file looks like this:
i686-redhat-linux
If yours is different you might need to change it.
