Thank you - much appreciated !

A further clarification: My intel i810 is located at hw:0 and appears
to support 20 bit sampling.  If I record via the plughw plugin, eg:

arecord -Dplughw:0,0 -fS24_LE ...

will it sample at the full 20 bits and then convert to 24 bit format ?

How does one know/determine what native sample resolution is actually
being used ?  (e.g. How do I know that it is not simply sampling at
S16_LE and the plughw plugin is "expanding" it to S24_LE) ?

Thanks again for all of your help/effort, Scott.
