Can I access/play the default audio files that come with iPhone?

In my app I want the user to choose (picker) what sound to play from the default audio files that come standard with the iPhone (Marimba, Alarm, etc...). And then play it when needed.

I found some sounds in this location:

/System/Library/Audio/UISounds/

You can load one this way:

tickSound = [[SoundEffect alloc] initWithContentsOfFile: @"/System/Library/Audio/UISounds/Tock.caf"];

Or get a list:

- (void) getSoundNames
{
    NSArray *array = [filemanager contentsOfDirectoryAtPath:@"/System/Library/Audio/UISounds/" error:nil];
    self.soundNamesArray = array;
}

Having said that, I am not sure if Apple approves of the use of these sounds.
