Sitemap is not available with nuxt/sitemap & nuxt/i18n module

I’m struggling making the sitemaps work with having the nuxt/sitemap and i18n module enabled.

This is my i18n configuration:

export default {
    locales: supportedLanguages,
    defaultLocale: 'ch-de',
    strategy: 'prefix',
    seo: false,
    lazy: true,
    langDir: 'lang/',
    parsePages: false,
    pages: computedRoutes,
    vueI18n: {
        fallbackLocale: 'ch-de'
    },
    detectBrowserLanguage: {
        useCookie: true,
        cookieKey: 'i18n_redirected',
        alwaysRedirect: false,
        fallbackLocale: 'ch-de',
        onlyOnRoot: true
    }
}

and here is my sitemap config fron the nuxt.config.js:

sitemap: {
    hostname: 'https://someurl.com',
    exclude: ['/**'],
     sitemaps: [
        {
            path: '/sitemap.xml',
            exclude: ['/**'],
            routes() {
                return getRoutesFor('keypersons')
            },
            gzip: false
        }
    ]
}

what i found out is that the generated sitemap-routes.json is not included when deploying with this builder… so i added the file to the serverFilesarray in my vercel.json.

"serverFiles": [
          "lang/**",
          "config/**",
          "sitemap/**",
          ".nuxt/dist/sitemap-routes.json"
]

With my sitemap configuration i assume that the sitemap.xml would be under https://someurl.com/sitemap.xml but i first get redirected to someurl.com/ch-de/sitemap.xml and than i get a 404 on that page.

I also tried to adjust things in the i18n config but i just can’t make it work. I have to use the i18n prefix strategy because i want all urls to be prefixed with the language.

Locally when i start nuxt in server mode everything works fine.

Did someone have the same Issue? or is thins a known problem?

@andrew-boyd Your solution works for me! I had async routes() function in my configuration. I wrapped everything in export default async function and now it works like a charm! Thank you.
