Need More Info *.bank and Graphic Problems After 1.2.7

[Trynix]

Application crashed because a fatal error occured while checking sound bank files. CRC Check failed!
Re-validating game files may solve this issue.

-File(s) : *.bank
-Error: Validation failure

1.Unfortunately, because my account has been newly created, I am not allowed to attach any photos. That's why I copied the error message as it appears to me.
I clean reinstalled the game twice.
I also deleted the entire (:\Steam\steamapps\common\Mount & Blade II Bannerlord)“Sounds” folder and once only deleted the “PC” folder within the Sounds folder. I then checked the files via Steam and reinstalled them. Unfortunately, this didn't help either.

2. After the 1.2.7 update, the graphics on the world map (for example in the mountains) look worse than before. I also noticed during the fights that some of the graphics there looked very crinkly and/or washed out. Zooming in to see enemy troops, for example, is so blurry that the function is no longer worth it.
For me personally, the first point is more important than the second because otherwise I can no longer play the game. I just wanted to mention the second point. Maybe they have an idea.

Hello everyone,
I have patched to version 1.2.9 since today and now when I start with the normal launcher I always get the same error message:
"Application crashed because a fatal error occurred while checking sound bank files. CRC Check failed!
Re-validating game files may solve this issue.

-File(s) : *.bank
-Error: Validation failure"

I've already tried everything on your troubleshooting list, including a clean reinstall.
The game runs behind the error message, but completely without sound. In the audio settings I can't set which device the sound should be played back with. If I click "ok" on the error message, the game crashes. The window after that just closes no matter what I click on.

This is a bit embarrassing, but I just found the solution myself.
I started the launcher and then, out of a premonition, checked my system sound settings. (go to desktop - display settings - Sound - app volume device preferences - bannerlord). Strangely, there was no playback device stored there. So not even standard. Now that I have set my desired playback device there, I was able to start the game normally via the launcher. No error message and the sound is finally back.
