Default Why 32 bit audio clipped at playback? What's the bit depth of an audio interface?

Hi there,
I understand that 32 bit audio has a lot of headroom so we can see yellow indicator at playing back. But why at the mixer of our audio interface you'll see the output is actually clipped and sounds distorted? Is it because 24bit is the highest for DAC?

I think pro audio fundamental questions but usually got ignored by many people that almost everyone nowadays just grab a daw and go.
