The Play command used for iOS is a special adaptation of the regular Play command (as is described in the docs) and as such does not yet support looping when on iOS. "For more control use the iphonePlaySoundOnChannel" for looping. But meanwhile if you use the mediaPicker it only works with the Play command and will not work with the iphonePlaySoundOnChannel. So you have to make specific choices based upon what you are needing.
