Android activity crashes when resuming

My app has a button to open a webpage, however when returning to the app it crashes, I am using onPause() and onRestart() methods. Anyone know why it crashes when resuming to the app after closing the webpage?

private void goToUrl(String url) {
    Uri uriUrl = Uri.parse(url);

    Intent launchBrowser = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uriUrl);

    startActivity(launchBrowser);
}

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

    titleMusic.release();
}

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

    titleMusic.start();
}

logCat stack trace

This exception indicates that your media player is in a "wrong" state. Being a state machine, it must be properly initialised, make sure that you properly deal with it's state when going out/coming back to the activity.

For example, in your onPause(), you're releasing MediaPlayer resources, so when you're back, it's not initialised again.
