I am trying to make one polyphonic synth patch that receives 2 different MIDI inputs from 2 separate Ableton MIDI tracks. One MIDI input is routed via Ableton to M4L "note in channel 1" that reads pitch table from a "mtof" object, the other input is routed to "note in channel 2" that reads micro-tonal pitch from a "coll" file.

Everything works OK when the M4L device is opened for editing, but as soon as I close the M4L device and try to play either of the MIDI inputs, a unexpected problem occurs that they start to play both at the same time. When I open the M4L device, they go back to playing separately again.

Also when I drag the M4L device from the Ableton file browser to the track, they work separately again.

In my experience it's a rather common issue, in particular with midi devices. When closing a device after editing sometimes it doesn't work correctly anymore unless you re-load the device into the live set. In other words, interactive editing is not (yet) implemented reliably.
