''' AudioServicesPlaySystemSound(soundEffect); '''
and see if it errors in the console

3,820 PointsHi, right now I'm tested the sample app that downloading from the lesson, this file is made for Mr. Amit and the result is the same not get sound, but I tried in the older Xcode 5 and this file it's OK!!, I really thought the xcode beta would go well but it's only a BETA x), otherwise thank you very much for response my questions!!
どもありがとうございました！！

6,646 PointsIf you get sound in the simulator but not on the phone itself, make sure your phone is not set on vibrate.. I had the same issue and looked for issues but it was just my phone was on silent.
erick spinoza
3,820 PointsThanks for responding!! I not get the sound in the simulator... any idea?
Jeremy Lindstrom
6,646 PointsCode looks ok I think from a quick glance over, you've made sure the mp3 is in the left hand folder view as well?
erick spinoza
3,820 PointsI continued with all steps in the video 5 times but not found the problem, thank you for response!
erick spinoza
3,820 Pointsright now I'm using xcode bets 6 and note that he had added the Framework folder, I included it by hand, along with sound framework and the other by default, maybe is a bug in xcode, I don't know...
Christopher Bijalba
12,446 PointsMy simulators do not have sound in Xcode as well, but sound works on the phone. I have tried the system sound settings and that didn't work for me.

3,820 PointsXcode version is beta?

14,455 PointsHi guys, I figured out a workaround for the sound effect. I am also using Xcode 6 beta:
1: add the AVFoundation.framework (same way that we added the AudioToolbox Framework in the video).
2: Import the AVFoundation/AVFoundation.h header, by adding it to the top of the ViewController.m file
3: Create an instance variable in the view controller to hold an AVAudioPlayer object. I called mine _soundFX
@interface ViewController() {
AVAudioPlayer *_soundFX;
}
4: We've already constructed the URL to the sound file. Comment out or delete the AudioServicesCreateSystemSoundID(CFBridgingRetain(soundURL), &soundEffect); line. Below it, add:
_soundFX = [[AVAudioPlayer alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:soundURL error:nil];
5: Then, in the makePrediction method that we added in a previous video, you can simply call the play method on _soundFX
[_soundFX play];
Hope this helps!
Best, Ogechi
P.S. Is there any way to ask Amit whether there's any kind of backend performance issue when using the AVFoundation rather than the AudioToolKit framework to implement this task?
