How do I stop an AV Audio memory leak?

[Kenenth]

in my app, when I test on a device, It crashes. I have tested it with instruments and I have figures out that there is a huge leak every time I call a sound, like the background music track which just escalates with leaked memory. here is my code:

	[startbutton setHidden:YES];
	troopSpawnTimer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:2 target:self selector:@selector(spawnParatrooper) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];
	lowerParatrooperTimer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:.03 target:self selector:@selector(lowerParatroopers) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];
	bulletTimer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:0.03 target:self selector:@selector(checkCollisionAndMove) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];
	bulletCheckTimer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:0.01 target:self selector:@selector(bulletCheck) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];
	
	NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"GloriousMorning" ofType:@"mp3"];
	AVAudioPlayer *theAudioMusic=[[AVAudioPlayer alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:path] error:NULL];
	//float music_Volume = [[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] floatForKey:@"musicVolume"];
	//theAudioMusic.volume = music_Volume;
	[theAudioMusic play];
	[theAudioMusic release];
	[path release];

How can I modify this so that there will be no leaking memory? Thanks!

remove [path release] to see if it fixes the crash first
