With the options "split=no" and "split=repeat" ConTeXt puts the table in
a \vbox but with "split=yes" this doesn't happen.
To check is this is the problem he can put the table in a float
environment and disable the caption and counter.
\startplacetable[location={force,none}]
\startembeddedxtable
...
\stopembeddedxtable
\stopplacetable
