Have you tried decoding the entities?  I use this trick to decode entities in 
XML when I have problems reading in special characters:

private function decodeEntities(entityString:String):String 
{
    var x:XML = new XML("<n>"+entityString+"</n>"); 
    x.parseXML();
    return x.firstChild.firstChild.nodeValue;
}

Send the function a string of the text value from the XML and see if that works.
