ios9 has broken MusicTrack Looping

Howdy

We all know that ios9 has broken the looping ability of MusicTracks played back via MusicPlayer. An earlier thread (https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/9940) has more information about this and various bug reports.


It has been 3 iterations now (betas and 9.0.1, 9.0.2, and now 9.1) that this bug persists, and it sounds like people have apps alive on the store that now just don't work.


Is there any news we can get from the core audio team why this bug persists or if/when it will be fixed? I'd be happy to switch to using AVMusic tracks, but those are just not full featured enough to migrate to.


I have submitted a bug report (23314321) with included code, hopefully simple and easy to see the problem in action.


Thank you as always.

It appears to be fixed in 9.2.

Awesome, thanks for the report.

Sounds like I need to sign up for the beta.


Thank you again - I'll confirm once I get it sorted.

I've been waiting for this fix for ages. Was testing every beta and release since 9.0 hoping for the fix while telling all the iOS 9 users not to download my app 😟

And for those in OS X, it was also broken in 10.11, and was fixed in 10.11.2.
