Oh now I understand, looks like a new bug. I am not able to reproduce with FDI 3.4.1 and develop Foreman. The code responsible for finding existing record is here:
https://github.com/theforeman/foreman_discovery/blob/develop/app/models/host/discovered.rb#L53-L62 Theoretically if you changed configuration of bootif fact in settings, this could happen. But I assume you haven't. Was it also the same FDI version, just in case facter changed facts? If you visit the original discovery host in the UI, do you see Interfaces list? What MAC address is there? Is it detected as the primary interface there? Do you still have both records in the DB? Can you run rake console and try these statements? Or insert Rails.logger.info statements there to see the code flow.
