[pulseaudio-discuss] How to be sure about the quality of the audio?

HI.
Im having this issue:
I subscribed to Qobuz (an Hi-res audio quality).

I was using ALSA directly and with alsa, i just put this:
sudo cat /proc/asound/IQaudIODAC/pcm0p/sub0/hw_params

if it is a 16bit 44000Khz audio i get:
access: MMAP_INTERLEAVED
format: S16_LE
subformat: STD
channels: 2
rate: 44000 (44000/1)
period_size: 2160
buffer_size: 8640

if it is a 24bit, 192Khz i get the adequate values.

But with PulseAudio how to be sure about the quality of the audio?
if i put the same parameter (sudo cat
/proc/asound/IQaudIODAC/pcm0p/sub0/hw_params ) i always just get the sample
rate and format that i config in the daemon.conf... it is not relevant if
the audio is actually 16bit or 24 and the Khz are 44000 or 192000 or
whatever.

So... there is a command to know exactly the quality that is really playing?
