Do the counts match? ASR9k CRC input and Nexus 5k output errors?

I believe 5596 supports cut-through switching so CRC is detected after
frame has been sent. So possibly:

A => 5596 => ASR9k

A>5596 transit is breaking your frames or broken memory in 5596 and
ASR9k is dropping them on ingress due to FCS/CRC check.

And I'd be surprised if it is not service affecting, what ever frames
those are, they are not delivered. Voice with modern codecs is very
insensitive to quality, tolerates massive packet losses and jitter.
Couple CRC errors here and there wouldn't matter at all.
