I can't current reproduce. I don't use xelatex, so I did `tlmgr
install xetex` and the same for `xetex-def`. I wasn't sure if Org
would pick up to use xelatex or not, so I took your example, exported
to PDF via `C-c C-e l P` (for LaTeX Beamer) and then opened a terminal
and did `xelatex test.tex`, the file Org created from my test.org file
containing your contents.

I attached the result.

Some observations:
- I noticed your latex output has beamer using the split theme. Where
is it picking that?
- You have a line in your #+ headers: `#+BEAMER_HEADER:
\input{header_beamer} \date{}`. I don't have that file so I'm not sure
what it does. I just removed it.
- Here is my .emacs Beamer setting (default from the Org 8.0 new
Beamer Worg page):

#+begin_src .emacs

(add-to-list 'org-latex-classes
             '("beamer"
               "\\documentclass\[presentation\]\{beamer\}"
               ("\\section\{%s\}" . "\\section*\{%s\}")
               ("\\subsection\{%s\}" . "\\subsection*\{%s\}")
               ("\\subsubsection\{%s\}" . "\\subsubsection*\{%s\}")))

#+end_src

Again, see if the attached looks reasonable. Feel free to tell me how
to more properly export via xelatex if you want someone to try and
reproduce. I'm just not familiar with it at all, so I wasn't really
sure bit gave it the 'ole college try.
