Use your local notification object and set its soundName property to sound file

[localNotif setSoundName:@"abc.mp3"];

Be sure to copy the sound file in the root of the project.

you can also use the name of the sound directly, by example...

localNotif.soundName = @"marimba.mp3";

Remember that your notification sounds may not be longer than 30 seconds - if the file supplied is longer, nothing will sound.

Also, check the sound in some external player first, and best convert it to .caf format.

To convert a file to .caf, open up terminal, go to where you have your sound stored and type in:

afconvert -f caff -d LEI16@44100 -c 1 yourfile.wav yourfile.caf

Then just set it like:

yourNotification.soundName = @"yoursound_name.caf";
