Is the scenario reliable? I haven't seen the result you're describing 
after trying it.

Are there some particular settings that make the xref buffer appear in a 
new frame? It always uses the current frame here.

The command that's called in the end is `xref-goto-xref'. Might it be 
that `xref-quit' ends up selecting the wrong frame?
