Thank you! With a little modification for steps to be:

  M-x flyspell-mode RET
  M-: (setq ispell-program-name "hunspell")
  M-x ispell-hunspell-add-multi-dic RET ru_RU,en_US RET
  M-x ispell-change-dictionary RET ru_RU,en_US RET

this worked for me! Hmm, let me try to experiment with that a bit to see why it
didn't work for me non-interactively…
