I am not sure whether I understand this correctly, but slurs and ties should never touch. If a tie end and a slur beginning coincide then ideally both must be moved a little off-center. If a note starts both a tie and a slur the slur should be on the outside, further away from the note. I have resorted to using somewhat compromised settings for ties, which avoid collisions in most cases.
