Pulled the cassette off tonight And reviewed the cassette and XD hub. Reinstalled and tightened down good. Guess what? I got the correct spacing now!
Root cause:. Cassette not properly tightened/engaged on hub. This was my first XD hub, so I'm learning!
Appreciate everyone's input and feedback. Really helps to bounce my problems off others who are knowledgeable.

Can you expand on this a little? I would think that if the cassette is simply tightened on the freehub body, it would be seated as well as it can be. How was it not seated properly and therefore "stuck out" too far to allow space between the small cog and the dropout? Was it actually too loose?
