I'm having the exact same problem[1]; it seems that xelatex has a problem
converting the .eps files that lilypond produces. I managed to get it to
work by passing --pdf to lilypond-book; however, if you do manage to get the
eps route working, I'd be interested to hear how. My best attempt involved
editing the "rungs" line of dvipdfmx.cfg  to replace -sPAPERSIZE=a0 with
-dEPSCrop. Then the systems show up, but they're sometimes wrongly
positioned.

Cheers,
Joe
