If you store your sound object in a variable or an object, that's 
accessible by the actions of both buttons, then you can send the messages 
(#play and #pause) to the sound object.

If you don't want to store the sound object in your code, then your 
only option is to stop playing all sounds. This can be done by:

SoundPlayer stopPlayingAll.

If there were a #stop method, then what would be the difference between 
#pause and #stop?
