The g_ascii_formatd() function expects the "format" argument to start
with a '%' character, e.g. it should be "%f" or such (this is not
clearly documented in the glib API docs, but visible from the source code).
The usage of "CH%f" for example will trigger an assertion and thus make the
LWLA device unusable in practice (e.g. in PulseView on Windows no probenames
would be shown, and sampling wouldn't work).
