That's exactly what I have feared. The prompt appears twice, and Tramp
is confused. But this happens only after calling /bin/sh; your initial
prompt looks fine.

I mean all shell related init files, like .profile, .bash_profile etc. What
kind of shell is /bin/sh? Just a bourne shell, or linked to another shell?

And, btw, what OS is the remote host running? Could you show the output of

# uname -sr
