You have 30 empty lines at the beginning of the sitemap source code.

It means you have empty lines somewhere in your theme (could be a mu-plugin, plugin) or a badly opened / closed PHP tag.

You have to fix this to solve this issue.

but can you tell more precisely where to look?

Could be header.php or wp-config.php.

Try to use the default WP theme and see if it’s better.
