audio continuously playing even it moves to the next activity

I made an activity that has an audio as a background music. When i add a skip button to move to another activity the background music of my first activity was continuously playing. Here's my code, kindly check and post what should i add to my code. Thanks in advance!

public class pgone extends Activity {
    protected boolean _active = true;
    protected int _splashTime = 7000;
     public void onAttachedToWindow() {
            super.onAttachedToWindow();
            Window window = getWindow();
            window.setFormat(PixelFormat.RGBA_8888);


        }

     MediaPlayer audio;
     MediaPlayer SLONE;

    private long splashDelay = 6000; 


    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.pgone);

        TimerTask task = new TimerTask()
        {

            public void run() {

                Intent mainIntent = new Intent().setClass(pgone.this, pgtwo.class);
                startActivity(mainIntent);
                finish();

            }

        };

        final Timer timer = new Timer();
        timer.schedule(task, splashDelay);


        audio = MediaPlayer.create(this,R.raw.storyaud);
        audio.start();

        SLONE = MediaPlayer.create(this,R.raw.sl1);
        SLONE.start();


        final MediaPlayer mp = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.buttonbeep);
        final Vibrator mVibrator = (Vibrator) getSystemService(Context.VIBRATOR_SERVICE);


Button skipButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.skip);
skipButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

    public void onClick(View v) {
        Intent skipIntent = new Intent(pgone.this,choose.class);
        startActivity(skipIntent);
         mp.start();
         mVibrator.vibrate(500);
        finish();
        timer.cancel();
        timer.purge();


    }
});

    }

    protected void exitByBackKey() {

        AlertDialog alertbox = new AlertDialog.Builder(this)
        .setMessage("Do you want to exit the game?")
        .setPositiveButton("Yes", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {


            public void onClick(DialogInterface arg0, int arg1) {

                finish();
            }
        })
        .setNegativeButton("No", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {

            public void onClick(DialogInterface arg0, int arg1) {
            }
        })
          .show();
    }

}

The easiest and most efficient way - 

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

    }

Exploit Activity life cycle's onPause phase when you jump to next activity .Just release the I/O resources under use which is yours MediaPlayer object here .

Please Write mp.stop() mp.reset() instead of mp.start() on click event of skip button, and see below link for more information.

You should stop the audio before moving to the next Activity. Try replacing mp.start() by mp.stop() here,

Button skipButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.skip);
skipButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

    public void onClick(View v) {
        Intent skipIntent = new Intent(pgone.this,choose.class);
        startActivity(skipIntent);
         mp.stop();
         mVibrator.vibrate(500);
        finish();
        timer.cancel();
        timer.purge();


    }
});
