Pontryagin dual of a group-cohomology class

Let $A, B, C$ be finite Abelian groups fitting in a short exact sequence $$ 1 \rightarrow A\overset{\iota}{\rightarrow} B\overset{\pi}{\rightarrow} C\rightarrow 1 $$ This determines a class $[\...

Are $H^3(A,U(1))$ and $\operatorname{Ext}^1(A,A^\vee)$ isomorphic for $A$ finite Abelian?

Motivated by three-dimensional Dijkgraaf-Witten TQFTs for finite Abelian groups $A$, that are classified by $H^3(A,\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z})$, it seems natural that this group is (naturally) isomorphic ...
