Put this in your main activity (or wherever you placed your player):

protected void onPause() {
    super.onPause();
    // Put your media player object here
    mp.pause();
}

That should stop your music whenever you leave your activity.

onPause is not called when HOME button is pressed. One should use onUserLeaveHint() for that case. – Vladimir Ivanov Mar 23 '12 at 08:45

In your onBackPressed method write mp.stop() and then mp=null where mp is your mediaplayer instance...
