The game seems to force the media volume controls to be the default action for the volume rocker after you exit the game. I am forced to use a task killer to kill the game task or reboot the phone to regain normal function.

To reproduce:

1. From freshly rebooted phone, use volume rocker to verify that Ringtone volume is default volume to be adjusted.
2. Launch Pocket Legends
3. When game is loaded use volume rocker, note that Media Volume is set to the be controlled.
4. Enter a world.
5. Exit the world back to the main menu
6. Exit the game from the main menu screen. This doesn't appear to end the task entirely.
7. From phone desktop use volume rocker to adjust volume. Note that now, Media Volume and not Ringtone volume is being controlled.

From what I can tell there are 3 ways to regain normal(Ringtone) volume control:

1. Kill the process using a task killer
2. Reboot the phone
3. Let Android memory management terminate the process after some time.

Device info:

Samsung Epic 4g on Sprint
