getting an exception 4.3 on an NSSound object

Question

I load a sound like so:

sound = [[NSSound alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"alert" ofType:@"mp3"] byReference:NO];

Also I have "all exceptions" break point turned on in xCode. The above line throws an exception twice in a row before the code continues and my sound plays. all i see is that the code stops with Thread1: "breakpoint 4.3"

Could someone explain to me what's going on here and what 4.3 means? is there any reference for these numbers?

I've tried to use just:

sound = [NSSound soundNamed:@"alert"];

with exactly the same result...

thank you.

You are the first who noticed this problem with the System Sound…. I have the same issue in Xcode with the System Sound of the iPhone (iOS). If I turn on the "all exceptions" break point I get the same message you have. I went crazy today with this…. but probably is an Apple's issue and anyway is not dangerous maybe….. Is there any way to disable this exception from "all exceptions" in Xcode?

… well if you enable exceptions only for "Objective-C" in the options, you do not get this message anymore. It mean that it is a C++ exception (more apple / framework related).
