You should pausing MediaPlayer instance in onPause() method.
But from your code, your final MediaPlayer angry is only exist in onCreate() method as local object variable. To fix your problem, you need to move out your angry object from onCreate() method, so you can access it from onPause() method. Here's example:

import android.media.MediaPlayer;

public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
MediaPlayer angry; //Now it is here

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

     angry = MediaPlayer.create(MainActivity.this, R.raw.angry);

And you should pause it in onPause() method like this:

@Override
public void onPause ()
{
  if (angry != null)
  {
    angry.pause();
    angry.stop();
  }
  super.onPause();
}
