How to resolve Type of expression is ambiguous wit

Question

I have upgraded to Swift 2.0 and I quite can't understand this when I try to record a sound:

Type of expression is ambiguous without more context

on var recordSettings

What should I do to fixt this error and more important, why?

 var recordSettings = [
        AVFormatIDKey: kAudioFormatAppleLossless,
        AVEncoderAudioQualityKey : AVAudioQuality.Max.rawValue,
        AVEncoderBitRateKey : 320000,
        AVNumberOfChannelsKey: 2,
        AVSampleRateKey : 44100.0
    ]

    var dirPaths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(.DocumentDirectory, .UserDomainMask, true)
    var docsDir: AnyObject = dirPaths[0]
    var soundFilePath = docsDir.stringByAppendingPathComponent("tempRecordzz")
    var soundFileURL:NSURL = NSURL(fileURLWithPath: soundFilePath)



    var error: NSError?
    do {
        recorder = try AVAudioRecorder(URL: soundFileURL, settings: recordSettings)
    } catch var error1 as NSError {
        error = error1
        recorder = nil
    }

The type of kAudioFormatAppleLossless changed from Int (Swift 1.2/Xcode 6.4) to Int32 (Swift 2/Xcode 7) and UInt32 in Swift 7.0.1. The fixed sized integer types like Int32 and UInt32 are not automatically bridged to NSNumber objects for insertion in an NSDictionary.

An explicit conversion helps to resolve the issue:

let recordSettings = [
    AVFormatIDKey: Int(kAudioFormatAppleLossless), // <-- HERE
    AVEncoderAudioQualityKey : AVAudioQuality.Max.rawValue,
    AVEncoderBitRateKey : 320000,
    AVNumberOfChannelsKey: 2,
    AVSampleRateKey : 44100.0
]
