Comment:

 This is just how FFmpeg works: You cannot choose the sample format a
 particular decoder returns, you have to check what it returns. In the
 past, the sample formats some decoders returned changed (without a version
 bump) and for a given stream the sample format may change because of
 compile time options.
 Decoding to float is faster on many modern platforms, the mp3 decoder
 therefore outputs floats.
 libmp3lame accepts different input sample formats, some of them certainly
 faster than others.
