I find the unspoken rule is if the Spanish speaker speaks English better the you speak Spanish then the conversation will turn to English. Vice versa is true as well. In the USA many Spanish speakers are quite fluent in English, so therefore you will often be obliged to use English.

In these cases you can still use Spanish by peppering you English with Spanish phrases.
