AVAudioPlayer don't play sound, if the device is on silent mode.

You can enable using AVAudioSession

OBJECTIVE-C

#import <AVFoundation/AVFoundation.h>

NSError *error = nil;
[[AVAudioSession sharedInstance] setCategory:AVAudioSessionCategoryPlayback error: nil];
[[AVAudioSession sharedInstance] setActive:YES error:&error];

SWIFT

import AVFoundation

do {
    try AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().setCategory(AVAudioSessionCategoryPlayback)
    try AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().setActive(true)
}
catch {
    print(error)
}

Set the volume to max. 1.0 is the maximun volume level 0.0 is minimum volume level

  - (void)viewDidLoad
    {
        [super viewDidLoad];
           NSString *path = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@/Right Side Stress Increasing.mp3", [[NSBundle mainBundle] resourcePath]];
            NSURL *soundUrl = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:path];

            // Create audio player object and initialize with URL to sound
            _audioPlayer = [[AVAudioPlayer alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:soundUrl error:nil];
            _audioPlayer.volume = 1.0
    }

    - (IBAction)playButtonTapped:(id)sender
    {
        //play sound
         [_audioPlayer play];
    }
