Question

I am getting this group of messages in the debugger when I run the app and click on one of the buttons that I have linked a sound to. I have no visible errors in my code. Please help as I don’t know how to fix it. When the button is first clicked on it takes a while for it to react. Then afterwards it is fine.

Answer 1

This is normal behaviour for the iOS Simulator and shouldn’t happen on an actual device. The delay comes from the Simulator/Device loading the sound file and decoding it before it can play it, the solution to this is to pre-load the sound so that its ready when the button is tapped.
