If the format is a 32 bits value, it is not important what the actual resolution is from the software POV. It's a value that ranges from -2G to +2G regardless the fact the x lowest bits are always 0. This is in case the data is left-aligned. Instead, if the data is right-aligned, ALSA must have specific support for it because the values range from -512K to +512K (I assume it's signed), so either it has to communicate the actual format to apps, or it must be able to convert the data to other formats.
