I have received two updates, both for MBUX, but no communications module update. Do you also have MBUX updates? If so, how many?

No, only Infotainment (last year) and Map updates.

Any of you noticed there's a bit of change in the sound system quality after the update?

I've been listening to the kids lesson stuff since the update, but just this past weekend I fired up my Spotify Premium with lots of classical orchestra and some jazz and I noticed a rather more clarity to the sound. It's been the same playlist. Then on SiriusXM all of the sudden everything sounds way much clearer and no more excessive bass. I thought that was just me, but then much to my surprise, all my equalizer reset to 0. It was at -4 Bass, -2 Mid, +3 Treble w/ Surround mode when the last time I checked it before the update. It sounds so good now even when the bass is cranked up, it's not boomy anymore. Right now I left everything at 0 w/ Pure mode.

The fact that the equalizer reset to 0 made me think that the sound module was update. Too bad there isn't the readme on the update (or is there?). Anyone else felt the same way? This is the mid-level Burmester, not the 3D.

I noticed that too although I changed my EQ settings back to what I had prior to the update.
