Kaffeine uses libVlc for video stream display. VLC selects a default output
plugin based on its internal logic, seeking for the fastest one. Sometimes, the
selected one doesn't allow video scaling. There's an option on newer versions
of Kaffeine that allows passing arguments to libVlc, forcing it to select a
different plugin. You can change it via those menu options:

"Settings" -->  "Configure Kaffeine" -->  "libVLC". Any VLC command line option
is accepted there. You could try those:
        --no-video-title-show -V xcb_glx
or:

        --no-video-title-show -V xcb_xv

and re-start Kaffeine.
