I am using pulseaudio as the sound server in conjunction with alsa. My alsa sinks are mapped to pulseaudio in asound.conf. Using paplay with a 24 bit file seems to work fine, because pulseaudio just converts the S24 bit data to 32 bit float. Is there a way to bypass using plughw with alsa, so that alsa can just send the 24 bit pcm data to pulseaudio, then have pulseaudio do the neccessary conversion?
