@Sauray ... I did not think of that. I guess my question would be... since after the player is launched they are now actually outside of my app, do I even have control over the back button at that point?
@Chris Stratton ... It's looking like I will have to build my own... which is fine. Part of me wanted to do so anyway since it seems to be the more accepted way to do things. I was more trying to use the default player b/c I thought it would be the simpler way to do things so I could get the app into the hands of those that are going to be beta testing it. For my second issue... Accessing an AsyncTask from a Notification's PendingIntent ... Could I put a BroadcastReceiver in the AsyncTask then send a broadcast on user interaction with the dialog? That was the next option I was going to try... I just haven't had time to implement it yet.
