Set the element's value equal to the "value" attribute of the option you
want to be selected:
$form = new Zend_Form();
$form->addElement('select', 'cars', array(
'multiOptions' => array('vo' => 'Volvo', 'sa' => 'Saab', 'me' =>
'Mercedes', 'au' => 'Audi')
));
$select = $form->getElement('cars');
$select->setValue('sa');
