         mp.stop();
         //mp.reset();

        }
    });

}
}

Answer 1

Don't use stop() for pausing media. Use pause() and check isPlaying() or not before pausing() it.

Answer 2

change to this:

button2.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    public void onClick(View v) {
    if (mp != null) {
         mp.stop();
         mp.release();
    }
    }
});
