Hi there, I'm building an audio app for iOS and ran into a very weird bug when using multiple AVAudioUnitSampler instances to play different instruments at the same time. I narrowed down the repro to: let sampler = AVAudioUnitSampler() self.audioEngine.attach(sampler) self.audioEngine.connect(sampler, to: self.audioEngine.mainMixerNode, format: nil) try! sampler.loadInstrument(at: Bundle.main.url(forResource: "SteinwayPiano-v1", withExtension: "aupreset")!) let sampler2 = AVAudioUnitSampler() self.audioEngine.attach(sampler2) self.audioEngine.connect(sampler2, to: self.audioEngine.mainMixerNode, format: nil) try! sampler2.loadInstrument(at: Bundle.main.url(forResource: "Rhodes-v1", withExtension: "aupreset")!) I get the following error on the console (real device and simulator): 2022-07-02 21:27:28.329147+0200 soundboard[23592:612358] [default]     ExtAudioFile.cpp:193  about to throw -42: open audio file 2022-07-02 21:27:28.329394+0200 soundboard[23592:612358] [default]      FileSample.cpp:52  about to throw -42: FileSample::LoadFromURL: ExtAudioFileOpenURL 2022-07-02 21:27:28.330206+0200 soundboard[23592:612358]     SampleManager.cpp:434  Failed to load sample 'Sounds/Rhodes/A_050__D3_4-ST.wav -- file:///Users/deermichel/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/79ACB2AD-5155-4798-8E96-649964CB274E/data/Containers/Bundle/Application/A10C7802-3F4B-445D-A390-B6A84D8071EE/soundboard.app/': error -42 2022-07-02 21:27:28.330414+0200 soundboard[23592:612358] [default]     SampleManager.cpp:435  about to throw -42: Failed to load sample Sometimes the app crashes after that, but most importantly, sampler2 won't work. Now, if I only create one of the samplers, it works as expected. Also, if both samplers reference to the same aupreset, it works. Only if I try to load different samples, I end up in undefined behavior. Adding a audioEngine.detach(sampler) before creating sampler2 doesn't solve the issue either - it will fail loading the samples with the same error. However, when deferring removal of sampler and creation of sampler2 a little bit, it magically starts working (though that's not what I want because I need both samplers simultaneously): let sampler = AVAudioUnitSampler() self.audioEngine.attach(sampler) self.audioEngine.connect(sampler, to: self.audioEngine.mainMixerNode, format: nil) try! sampler.loadInstrument(at: Bundle.main.url(forResource: "SteinwayPiano-v1", withExtension: "aupreset")!) DispatchQueue.main.async { self.audioEngine.detach(sampler)   let sampler2 = AVAudioUnitSampler()   self.audioEngine.attach(sampler2)   self.audioEngine.connect(sampler2, to: self.audioEngine.mainMixerNode, format: nil)   try! sampler2.loadInstrument(at: Bundle.main.url(forResource: "Rhodes-v1", withExtension: "aupreset")!) } My samples are linked to the bundle as a folder alias - and I have a feeling that there is some exclusive lock... however I don't have the source code to debug the errors on the console further. Any help is appreciated, have a good one :)
