​Did you try to run Xen on native machine instead of using the nested

Does Xen run in nested virtualization or on bare  metal in this case?

As far as I know, the scheduler in Xen may not be aware of the nested
virtualization. I'm guessing the uncontinuous time below Xen in nested
virtualization may affect the scheduling decision and then make some domU
starving.
But it's weird that a domU is never scheduled...
(When I run Xen on virtual box, domU is slow but still running)
So I'm unsure if it's the scheduler issue or not...
