It does not boot though, even with Rockbox DTB from Recalbox. Any idea, why?

I have not tried the xfce version of Armbian Focal, so I can't help you there. But I have installed the minimal release without a GUI and had no problems. You might have success starting from there and then just install xfce on top.
Also, if you have not tried LibreElec yet, I suggest you try it as a TV media box. It works with the Pine64 IR remote without any configuration, is fast and has lots of extensions available to add features and services. It also supports hardware video acceleration on the Rock64 without needing any extra configuration.
