AVAudoPlayerNode to play a sound for a defined number of times

Question

Is it possible in AVAudioPlayerNode to loop an audio sound for a number of times only instead of infinite times? The below code scheduled the audio for an infinite number of times instead of saying 5 times.

aVAudioPlayerNode.scheduleBuffer(buffer!, at: nil, options: AVAudioPlayerNodeBufferOptions.loops, completionHandler: nil)

I am looking similar as AVAudioPlayer's as numberOfLoops to define how many times to play an audio. I could use AVAudioPlayer but there is no functionality to play with audio pitch.

The scheduleBuffer documentation says "Schedules the buffer to be played following any previously scheduled commands.". So just schedule it multiple times.

extension AVAudioPlayerNode {
    func sceduleBuffer(_ buffer: AVAudioPCMBuffer, numberOfLoops: Int = 1) {
        for _ in 0..<numberOfLoops { scheduleBuffer(buffer, at: nil) }
    }
}
