I tried with hacking other aos to advertise the "wrong" endianness
for 8-bit formats and I didn't see any major issues, so I don't know what
the problem is it fixes?
There was a small issue in the printout and it would cause a point
"endianness conversion" to be inserted.
I just made the audio_out.c code normalize the 8 bit formats.
So now it definitely shouldn't be causing any issues anymore.
