Thanks, I've uploaded to focal and hirsute. Do you care about 20.10 at
this point? It feels like we could probably skip this one to spare some
verification work since it's about to be replaced by a new stable and
isn't a LTS

Title:
[SRU] Increase recording quality
Status in HWE Next:
New
Status in alsa-utils package in Ubuntu:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
[Impact]
Audio gets recorded by "arecord" has really bad sound quality when the volume
is low.
[Fix]
https://github.com/alsa-project/alsa-utils/pull/69
Switch the default audio format from 8 bits to 16 bits if hardware supports
it.
[Test]
1. Plug a microphone.
2. Run `arecord | aplay` and say something to the microphone.
3. Only noise can be heard.
With the fix applied, the recording is clear.
[Where problems could occur]
If there's any hardware falsely advertised to support 16 bits, this change
will break them.
However, this is effectively using `arecord -f cd` or `arecord -f cdr`, so
that's not likely.
