can you please post output

apt-cache policy xbian-package-kernel

I'm sorry, I have deleted the install and did the opposite: install lxde on a xbian image.
At start I had simulair problems that my video's didn't play, but I notice when I did stop the lightdm service I could play video's normally. After a few reboots the problem did disappear (maybe startup sequence?). Now I can login to the lxde desktop, logout, and return to xbmc, and default XBMC starts, so I can play with the gui, and my wife and kid doesn't need to be a rocket scientist to play some movies .

Btw, I have installed freenx server on the Pi on the Xbian image, so I can remotely access the lxde desktop without log out and in again

If I give the raspbian solution a shot in the future, I will put the output over here when I notice the same problem.
