Try this

Intent LaunchIntent = getPackageManager().getLaunchIntentForPackage("com.package.address");
startActivity(LaunchIntent);

android:exported="true"; // Have to include it in the manifest file - activity to be used across multiple applications
Example 

     <activity
         android:name="com.example1.utility.MainActivity"
         android:exported="true"
         android:label="@string/app_name" />

Using MAinActivity from Another application

   Intent intent = new Intent();
   intent.setClassName("com.example.utility", "com.example1.utility.MainActivity");
   context.startActivity(intent3);

You're trying to open a settings activity from the system. You'll have a better chance of using the actual "action" for that activity. Try 

context.startActivity(new Intent("android.settings.SOUND_SETTINGS"));
