OSStatus error 2003334207 when using AVAudioPlayer

Question

I am trying to play an MP3 file (works when played via VLC/iTunes) when a button is pressed. Here is my code:

     var audioPlayer: AVAudioPlayer!

This is probably caused by trying to load a file that doesn't exist. If that helps someone adding the call to url.checkResourceIsReachable() will log more descriptive message.

Example code:

    do {
        let url = URL(fileURLWithPath: dbObject.path)
        let isReachable = try url.checkResourceIsReachable()
        // ... you can set breaking points after that line, and if you stopped at them it means file exist.
    } catch let e {
        print("couldnt load file \(e.localizedDescription)")
    }
