lets turn it around.... what theory makes you think there should be a
difference?  the only one i can think of might be if the arc is deflected by
the force of the dc field it flows through.  a deflected current may cause
more breakdown of the air just due to it's length.   with such a small gap
and only corona not a high current arc i would expect that it would be a
very small effect.
