Are you sure you've entered the WiFi client SSID/password credentials? What you are describing sounds suspiciously like they were entered but not correctly.
I just did a test with moOde 6.3.0 running on an RPi4B. Everything was working perfectly---ethernet, WiFi AP mode, and WiFi client mode. While in WiFi client mode, I deliberately altered the WiFi client password, saved it, and rebooted (with ethernet disconnected).
After a very long time, the moOde AP became visible in my WiFi scanner. I associated my laptop with it and then ssh'ed into 172.24.1.1.
Here's an annotated version of what I see in the moOde log:
Code:
pi@moode:~ $ moodeutl -l
...

20191019 150356 worker: wlan0 AP mode started # and so we revert to AP mode
20191019 150430 worker: wlan0 wait 0 for IP address

Now for the tricky business. In your case, while moOde is running in AP mode, plug the ethernet back in. The player will now be accessible via two different IP addresses: 172.24.1.1 on the WiFi network, and xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx on the wired LAN (192.168.1.xxx in my case). Log in from the wired LAN and run
moodeutl -l and see if you have similar output.
