Of course they were both playing each other. The big surprise to the Soviets that ruined their plan was that Germany defeated France so quickly.

Also the Soviets did reach out to Britain and France in 1939, it's just that their deal was "You do all the fighting to help a country that hates you then we invade Germany after it's all said and done and take the spoils". Why should the Soviets accept that? "Do our work for us in exchange for nothing".
