Correct me if I'm wrong - doesn't that have a closing </test_sox> too many?

How about
Code:
awk '
NR>1    {sub (/^<[^>]*>/,"")
         sub (/^<[^>]*>/,"")
        }
        {sub (/<\/test_sox>.?$/, "")
        }
1
END     {print "</test_sox>"
        }
' file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?><test_sox xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"><testdetials>....
<testdetials>....
</test_sox>
