Could you check this function?
This function is show up available formats list.
Could you create small program that support format checker?

show_available_sample_formats(snd_pcm_hw_params_t* params)@aplay.c
http://git.alsa-project.org/?p=alsa-utils.git;a=blob;f=aplay/aplay.c;h=ee480f29b760fb65fd6c5670d79899538b6497d6;hb=1314abd2d61877a92e5289452dee308e98dab0c1#l1178

and one more.
if you have decoded sound file, you can try playback using aplay(1)
e,g) aplay -D "hw:0,0" -f DSD_U16_LE -r $(rate_num) -c2 dsd.raw

Naoki
By the way.
I feel good so you received this mail.
My posts doesn't appear at alsa-lib ML.
I am sad and worried.
