Calibre Prefs > Metadata plugboards > Add new plugboard

Then fill in 4 columns:
Format: any format
Device: KOBOTOUCH
Source template: program: raw_list('authors', ', ')
Destination field: Authors
Press [Save plugboard] button
Press [Apply] button

You may need to Restart calibre afterwards, but next time you connect the Kobo to calibre all the Author data in the Kobo database should auto-magically be adjusted according to the new KOBOTOUCH/Authors plugboard.
This worked like a charm!
