I believe you will need to reset the MediaPlayer object to get it to clear it's reference to the ISurface. In any case, you don't want to be hanging on to a MediaPlayer that could be potentially keep the DSP holding on to wakelocks while the activity is in background. This is a sure-fire way to kill the battery.
Some of these restrictions will be lifted in a future release, but you'll still have to be careful about how much you try to do at once and how it will affect battery life.
