Have you checked that Linux version is supported by Hyper-V live backup ?

To be able to run incremental backup I would guess you needed Linux Integration Service (LIS) installed.

Curious, does the full backup of the linux VM work ?

The standard questions: Have you checked: 1) What has changed. 2) The manual 3) If there are any tech notes or VOX posts regarding the issue

Let's take the errors literally. Both bpbrm and bptm failed on socket reads. Bpbkar hadn't crashed. In fact, it also failed on a file read. Your problem is intermittent. I suspect your network.

Bingo...error 13, nearly always pointed to a network issue.  At least, "back in the day".  I haven't touched NBU in a while, but after using it since v 1.6 up to around v6.5, I still remember a thing or two...you should be able to increase the logging verbosity, to help hone in more.  Or you could just isolate the problem client and perform some basic diagnostics
