vi +278 net/ipv4/udp.c

                         int score = (sk->sk_family == PF_INET ? 1 : 0);
                         if (inet->rcv_saddr) {
                                 if (inet->rcv_saddr != daddr)
                                         continue;
                                 score+=2;
                         }
                         if (inet->daddr) {
                                 if (inet->daddr != saddr)
                                         continue;
                                 score+=2;
                         }
                         if (inet->dport) {
                                 if (inet->dport != sport)
                                         continue;
                                 score+=2;
                         }
                         if (sk->sk_bound_dev_if) {
                                 if (sk->sk_bound_dev_if != dif)
                                         continue;
                                 score+=2;
                         }

So in your case, socket bound to 127.0.0.1 should have a better score (+2) 
than other one, unless the other one got an >= score because of another match 
(rcv_saddr set or bounded to an interface)
