The "All Branches" report is a 2-level tree, and the disassembly displays when the next level of the tree is opened
i.e. click the arrow at the start of the line.

Have you tried both kernel and user space?

The script looks for dsos in the build id cache. The dsos can be viewed by selecting dsos_view from the Tables menu,
so you could check if that information looks right.

Also the script has a variable "have_disassembler", so you could hack the script to print that to find out if XED is working.
