AVMutableAudioMix - Can't fade out

I'm trying to fade out a AVComposition track (its an audio track for a video).

I can fade it up at the start no problem, but am having a lot of trouble fading it out at the end. Here is my code:

AVMutableAudioMixInputParameters *audioMixParameters = [AVMutableAudioMixInputParameters audioMixInputParametersWithTrack:compositionAudioTrack];

[audioMixParameters setVolume:0.0 atTime:kCMTimeZero];
[audioMixParameters setVolumeRampFromStartVolume:0.0 toEndVolume:1.0 timeRange:CMTimeRangeMake(kCMTimeZero, CMTimeMake(150, kVideoFPS))];

CMTime fadeOutBegin = CMTimeMake((length - 5) * kVideoFPS, kVideoFPS);
[audioMixParameters setVolumeRampFromStartVolume:1.0 toEndVolume:0.0 timeRange:CMTimeRangeMake(fadeOutBegin, totalDuration)];

AVMutableAudioMix *audioMix = [AVMutableAudioMix audioMix];
audioMix.inputParameters = [NSArray arrayWithObject:audioMixParameters];

length is a NSUInteger which is the length of the video in seconds.

totalDuration is a CMTime of the total video's duration with a timescale of kVideoFPS

kVideoFPS is a constant with the value 30

My goal is to begin the fade out 5 seconds from the end of the composition. I have tried all sorts of things, like CMTimeMakeWithSeconds. I have also reversed the values of the fade in, and it works fine (fading the volume from 1.0 to 0.0 right at the start).

Any thoughts greatly appreciated!

For those who are running into trouble using AVAudioMix / AVMutableAudioMix in conjunction with with streaming media, note that per Apple it currently only supports file-based assets.

The second parameter of CMTimeRangeMake is the duration of the CMTimeRange, not the end time of the time range (ref):

CMTimeRange CMTimeRangeMake(CMTime start, CMTime duration);

Try this to fade out for the final 5 seconds of the composition:

CMTime fadeOutEnd = CMTimeMake(5 * kVideoFPS, kVideoFPS);
[audioMixParameters setVolumeRampFromStartVolume:1.0 toEndVolume:0.0 timeRange:CMTimeRangeMake(fadeOutBegin, fadeOutEnd)];
