            play2.setImageResource(R.drawable.ic_baseline_play_circle_filled_24);
        }

    }

}

>Solution :

Try to pause it onPause() function as follows

 @Override
    protected void onPause() {
        super.onPause();

        if (player1!= null) {
            player1.pause();
        }
    }

    @Override
    protected void onResume() {
        super.onResume();
        if (player1!= null) {
            player1.start();
        }
    }
