I think, you might be having the issue that is explained here. Your loop occurs, because the OpenNI node has the respawn argument set - which isn't helpful because for the time being, it won't work until XnSensorServer is restarted. So I would recommend using the workaround killall XnSensorServer and then trying roslaunch ... again (I have to do this twice most of the time).
