There are only two flap configurations on the A320 series - 3 and full. It's difficult to float an A320 in config 3 unless you get a gust in the flare or have added a significant speed increment to Vapp.
I don't think configuration is relevant here since the tendency to float is totally different to the obviously flawed decision making that went on in this landing, to the extent, in fact, that I thought initially that this was a Microsoft Flight Simulator video posted as a troll.
