Audio playback for movie despite in silent mode? - ios

Question

sorry for my question but i´ve implemented a intro- video and despite of the hardware silent-switch of my iPad, the audio is playing.
I´m also using the AVAudioplayer within my app just for playing short sound samples. Within this class, its the only region where i´ve set up the "AVAudioSessionCategory".
But for all audio playback only, there´s nothing hearable. Its just for my intro-video.
Any help how to fix that "audio-bug" so the movie player is silent?
Thanks you
Here´s my Audio-class:
- (id)initWithSoundfileName:(NSString*) file
{
if ((self = [super init]))
{
NSString* filename = [file stringByDeletingPathExtension];
NSString* fileextension = [file pathExtension];
// get file path from bundle
NSString *soundFilePath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource: filename ofType: fileextension];
NSLog(#"AudioPlayer init: %#", soundFilePath);
NSURL* fileurl = [[NSURL alloc] initFileURLWithPath:soundFilePath];
NSError* error = nil;
AVAudioPlayer* audioplayer = [[AVAudioPlayer alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:fileurl error:&error ];
if (error) { NSLog(#"Error creating AVAudioPlayer %#", [error description]);}
// set audio policy
[[AVAudioSession sharedInstance] setCategory:AVAudioSessionCategoryAmbient error:NULL];
self.player = audioplayer;
[self.player prepareToPlay];
[self.player setDelegate:self];
}
return self;
}
-(void) play{
[self.player play];
}
And here´s my video-playback method:
- (void)playIntroVideo
{
NSString *movpath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:#"mymovie" ofType:#"mp4"];
NSURL *fileURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:movpath];
self.moviePlayerController = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL:fileURL];
self.moviePlayerController.fullscreen = YES;
self.moviePlayerController.scalingMode = MPMovieScalingModeAspectFit;
self.moviePlayerController.controlStyle = MPMovieControlStyleNone;
self.moviePlayerController.movieSourceType = MPMovieSourceTypeFile;
self.moviePlayerController.useApplicationAudioSession = NO;
[self.moviePlayerController.view setFrame: self.view.bounds];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:#selector(moviePlayBackComplete:)
name:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification
object:self.moviePlayerController];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:#selector(moviePlaybackStateChanged:)
name:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackStateDidChangeNotification
object:self.moviePlayerController];
[self.view addSubview:self.moviePlayerController.view];
[self.moviePlayerController prepareToPlay];
[self.moviePlayerController play];
}

Like #Till mentioned:
When I change the MoviePlayerController property to useApplicationAudioSession=TRUE, it fixes my problem. Audio Playback is silent.
