I know that Kaffeine used its own xine config file in KDE 3.5, Dragon
player i don't know but fore other xine programs there is a ~/.xine
directory with a config file in.
Searching for xine gives me this files:
$ find ~/ -iname "*xine*"
/home/jonas/.config/kde.org/Phonon-Xine.xine.conf
/home/jonas/.xine
/home/jonas/.kde/share/config/xinebackendrc

I would back them up, remove them, log out and in again to see if it
fixes the problem.
