Tassilo, I wrote a simple tutorial for beamer in org which you can
find on Worg (sorry: I'm offline so don't have the link at hand).

If I understood your message correctly, the solution may be to specify
the type of column environment to use (and what to do with the heading
of the column).  Type "C-c C-b" and select one of the environments
suggested.  I typically choose one of "b" (block), "e" (example) or
"i" (ignore heading).

HTH,
eric
