    SeekBar seekBar2;
    TextView elapsedTimeLable1;
    TextView elapsedTimeLable2;
    TextView remainingTimeLable1;
    TextView remainingTimeLable2;
    ImageView play1;
    ImageView play2;
    int totalTime1;
    int totalTime2;

    @Override

    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        // PlayButton    *  The ButtonClick is in the last if you want to jump directly there  *

        play1 = findViewById(R.id.playbtn1);
        play2 = findViewById(R.id.playbtn2);

        // TimeLables

        elapsedTimeLable1 = findViewById(R.id.cTime1);
        elapsedTimeLable2 = findViewById(R.id.cTime2);
        remainingTimeLable1 = findViewById(R.id.tTime1);
        remainingTimeLable2 = findViewById(R.id.tTime2);

        // MediaPlayer

        player1 = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.dog_howl);
        player1.setLooping(true);
        player1.seekTo(0);
        totalTime1 = player1.getDuration();
        player2 = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.dog_bark);
        player2.setLooping(true);
        player2.seekTo(0);
        totalTime2 = player2.getDuration();


        //SeekBar

        seekBar1 = findViewById(R.id.seekbar1);
        seekBar2 = findViewById(R.id.seekbar2);
        seekBar1.setMax(totalTime1);
        seekBar2.setMax(totalTime2);

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();
        }
    }
