Bug Description

Hello,

I want to convert an mp3 file to a wav file with 16-bits and setup the converter to this output.

The result is a 32bits wav file instead of a 16bits.

ffmpeg -i supposedtobe16bitfile.wav returns

 Duration: 00:03:55.23, bitrate: 2822 kb/s
    Stream #0:0: Audio: pcm_s32le ([1][0][0][0] / 0x0001), 44100 Hz, 2 channels, s32, 2822 kb/s

Converting the mp3 file with Audacity works

ffmpeg -i supposedtobe16bitfile.wav returns

  Duration: 00:03:55.23, bitrate: 1411 kb/s
    Stream #0:0: Audio: pcm_s16le ([1][0][0][0] / 0x0001), 44100 Hz, 2 channels, s16, 1411 kb/s

This bug could be related to #682139 Output PCM WAVs are not in compatible format

Best regards,
