Bug in the sound library. Your program should of course play the sound over 
and over.

Try setting a delegate for the sound object and have the delegate's
didPlay: method play the sound. This should give you a repeating sound
that does play more than 3 times. It won't be continuous, however; there
will be a small (but audible) break in between. For a beep or ping type 
sound, this shouldn't be a problem.
