Where did you read that?
even with all sparse-mode interfaces, check 224.0.1.40 and any other group

Hi,
If you have configured all the interfaces to PIM-SM then fallback mode will
be sparse , if you have at least one interface with SM-DM then
fallback mode will be Dense, by putting no ip pim dm-fallback
guaranties that fallback will be in Sparse mode.
Rgds,
Harri
