If they are both configured for the same network, the network stack
doesn't know which one to use.  You hand it a packet with a
destination address.  It says, "hey, wtf?  I have two interfaces that
are configured to deliver to that address!  I give up!" or something
like that.

How about showing us the output of a command that would remove the
PEBKAC issue?

What do:

  $ ip addr

and 
  
  $ ip route

show when it is and isn't working?  Install the iproute2 tools if you
don't have them already.
