I would like to do the following two things: 1) I would like to play an audio file qhen a nib is loaded 2) After that i would like to switch views when the audio file has finished playing. This will be easy as i just need to call the event that initiates the change of view by using the delegate method

-(void) audioPlayerDidFinishPlaying{
//code to change view
}

I dont know how to to play the audio file when a nib is loaded. Using the AVFoundation framework, I tried doing the following after setting up the audio player and the variables associated with it in the appropriate places i wrote the following:

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    NSString *soundFilePath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource: @"sound" ofType: @"mp3"];
    NSURL *fileURL = [[NSURL alloc] initFileURLWithPath: soundFilePath];

    AVAudioPlayer *newPlayer = [[AVAudioPlayer alloc] initWithContentsOfURL: fileURL error:nil];

    [fileURL release];
    self.player = newPlayer;
    [newPlayer release];

    [player prepareToPlay];
    [player setDelegate: self];
    [player play];
}

Although this does not play the file as the viewdidload method gets called before the nib is shown so the audio is never played or heard.

What do i need to do so that i can play the audio file AFTER the nib has loaded and is shown on the screen? can someone please help me as ive been working on this for 3 hours now. Thanks in advance.
