I can clearly see that it is candle.exe (not light.exe) who is returning the error. Meaning that validation candle is also a possibility.

Can you please test and see what is the difference in the way the compiler/linker invoked verify by Wix# and WixToolset. The easiest way to do this is to call
This will produce the batch file for building with plain WiX.
