mdpi is the default, so drawable and drawable-mdpi are the same thing and I don't know which Android chooses in this case - but you're designing for a tablet and tablets are generally mdpi devices so it correctly gets it from drawable-mdpi. You could use drawable-xlarge-mdpi if you want separate mdpi resources to be used for extra-large screens. Incidentally, remember a 7" 1024x600 tablet is large, not xlarge - so try drawable-large-mdpi and layout-large-mdpi and see if that gives you what you want.
