I am right now struggling to understand this issue. I have read XML several time with FME several times and never encountered this problem. I have an XML file that just lists a couple of airports with some basic information. The xml file looks like this:

What is going wrong here?
I suppose with 'wrong' you mean that you don't see attributes like 'OBJECTID', 'Name', 'Ort', etc. in the table view? If so, that's probably related to Flattening being disabled (default it seems to be enabled).
Can you verify that this setting is enabled for you? You can enable/disable this at the Reader parameter under 'Customize Attributes' -> 'Flatten Options'
Click on 'Options', and make sure that the checkbox in front of 'Enable Flattening' is checked.
