XMLBeans DOM Document

I am trying to get a DOM document to be then used with Xalan’s XPathAPI. This is the code that I have:

String xmlFile = "dom.xml";

XmlObject xmlObject = new XmlReader().read(xmlFile);

DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();

// MUST be TRUE or can't get back to bean land

factory.setNamespaceAware(true);

DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();

// Switch to org.w3c.dom.Document - xmlbeans.getDomNode() doesn't

// really seem to give you this

ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();

xo.save(out,new XmlOptions().setSavePrettyPrint());

Document doc = builder.parse(new InputSource(new ByteArrayInputStream(out.toByteArray())));

NodeList nodes = XPathAPI.selectNodeList(doc,"/Pipeline");

System.out.println("Number of nodes is " + nodes.getLength());

DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();

DocumentBuilder builder = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();

Document doc1 = builder.parse( new File(xmlFile));

NodeList nodes1 = XPathAPI.selectNodeList(doc1,"/Pipeline");

System.out.println("Number of nodes is " + nodes1.getLength());

I get two different answers in the system out. Any ideas as to what could be wrong in creating a DOM document from a XMLBeans object?
