AudioQueueStart reporting unsupported format

Question

I'm trying to get audio queue working on an iphone app, and whenever AudioQueueStart is called it gives the "fmt?" result code (kAudioFormatUnsupportedDataFormatError). In the code below i'm setting the format to kAudioFormatLinearPCM, which surely is supported. What am i doing wrong?

data.mDataFormat.mSampleRate = 44100;
data.mDataFormat.mFormatID = kAudioFormatLinearPCM;
data.mDataFormat.mFormatFlags = 0;
data.mDataFormat.mBytesPerPacket = 4;
data.mDataFormat.mFramesPerPacket = 1;
data.mDataFormat.mBytesPerFrame = 4;
data.mDataFormat.mChannelsPerFrame = 2;
data.mDataFormat.mBitsPerChannel = 16;

OSStatus status;

status = AudioQueueNewOutput(&data.mDataFormat, audioCallback, &data, CFRunLoopGetCurrent (), kCFRunLoopCommonModes, 0, &data.mQueue);

for (int i = 0; i < NUMBUFFERS; ++i)
{
 status = AudioQueueAllocateBuffer (data.mQueue, BUFFERSIZE, &data.mBuffers[i] );
 audioCallback (&data, data.mQueue, data.mBuffers[i]);
}

Float32 gain = 1.0;
status = AudioQueueSetParameter (data.mQueue, kAudioQueueParam_Volume, gain);

status = AudioQueueStart(data.mQueue, NULL);

data is of type audioData which is like this:

typedef struct _audioData {
AudioQueueRef mQueue;
AudioQueueBufferRef mBuffers[NUMBUFFERS];
AudioStreamBasicDescription mDataFormat;

} audioData;

thanks

Answer 1

it turns out i needed to set some flags. it works with

data.mDataFormat.mFormatFlags = kLinearPCMFormatFlagIsBigEndian | kLinearPCMFormatFlagIsSignedInteger | kLinearPCMFormatFlagIsPacked;

edit: actually, dont use kLinearPCMFormatFlagIsBigEndian, it seems that with this format it should be little endian.
