A device with multiple connections ought to be prioritising them in some way (and I'd certainly rank wired interfaces above wireless). Then trying to use that interface in preference. Or in some cases, you might want to have plugging in the wired interface automatically disconnecting the wireless interface. Your two interfaces should (nay must) have different MACs, likewise with numerical IPs. Any routers and switches should be aiming return traffic back at the same interface.
I usually configure dhcp to give the same IP address to both the ethernet and wifi interfaces. This lets you disconnect the ethernet and move around without losing connections. And makes it easy to find the device remotely however it's connected. Many years ago this did sometimes have issues, but for at least several years this has been working perfectly. The ethernet connection has priority, so connections will use it if it's connected.
