Is the DC/DC converter enabled when running ble_app_beacon?
Or is it only the LDO that is enabled?
I am running the application on nRF51822-DK.

DC/DC is not enabled by default in the 'ble_app_beacon' example. You should also check out this thread on DC/DC: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/question/685/ldo-vs-dcdc-nrf51822/
The LDO is turned off when not in use, so if you are measuring the output on DEC2 using a regular voltmeter the voltage reading will be too low. The DC/DC is bypassed internally, so it should not be necessary to shorten SB1.
