Are you specifying the SFP+ streaming-port address, or the management
address?

Gnu Radio has no idea what UHD does "under the covers".    UHD knows how
to deal with the situation where there's both a
  "source" and a "sink".  It has handled this configuration since the
very beginning.

It would be useful to see your flow-graph (or, even better, a minimum
flow-graph that displays the issue).

I don't have an X410 myself, but other network-based USRPs are used ALL
THE TIME for flow-graphs that use it in both
  directions simultaneously...
