Looks as if you had a bad WSDL description of your service
and a server which fails to honor elementary standard elements
(of the "XML-namespace" standard, in particular).
The XML-namespace standard dictates that the concrete namespace prefixes
are (apart from some "xml" prefixes) insignificant; namespace prefixes
are use only to refer to namespace uris and only these uris
are relevant. Thus, a standard conform XML-namespace application
should world with whatever prefix is used as long as they refer
to the correct namespace uri.
According to the standard, "xsi:type" is used when the underlying schema
(in your WSDL) does not statically determine the type. In this
case, missing type information is provided by "xsi:type".
A standard conform application should not have problems with "xsi:type"
attributes. Alternatively, the schema (in the WSDL) can assign types
and "suds" will not generate "xsi:type" attribute (at least not in
simple cases).

I cannot answer you concrete question.
However, when you are working with a component that does not honor
standards (this seems to be the case for your server component),
it may not be possible to use (other) components developed against
those standards.
In your particular case, it might be necessary to generate the SOAP
messages yourself - in the peculiar way, your server expects them -
rather than use "suds".
By the way: when I remember right, then "suds" supports some
control over the namespace prefixes used. Apparently, servers
not honoring the XML-namespace standard are not so rare.
Fortunately, I never needed this feature but I think I
have read something about it in the "suds" documentation.
