SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_S24_LE is 24bit audio padded to fill 4 bytes.
SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_S24_3LE is 24bit audio with no padding, thus taking 
only 3 types.

The asound.h says S24_LE is stored in lower three bytes of four, whereas S24_3LE is stored in three bytes total.

To use a sample format with 24 bits stored in the upper three bytes of
four, use S32_LE.  In that case, you have to call
"snd_pcm_hw_constraint_msbits(runtime, 0, 32, 24)" in the PCM open
callback to tell ALSA that some of the lower bits aren't used.
