This cannot happen...

Although the roboRIO Web-based Configuration is tolerant of “common ID” Talon SRXs to a
point, the robot programming API will not enable/control “common ID” Talons reliably.

Basically two Common-ID talons can't be enabled at the same time. One will win while the other stays disabled. Also there will be instances when both disable. When a Talon SRX is disabled it will blink orange each LED in an alternate pattern (think rail road crossing). See Talon User Guide for LED table.
