    Using AudioManager, you can simply control the volume of media players. 

    AudioManager audioManager = (AudioManager)getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);
audioManager.setStreamVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC, 20, 0);

    also from MediaPlayer (But I didn’t try that)

    setVolume(float leftVolume, float rightVolume)

    Since: API Level 1

    Sets the volume on this player. This API is recommended for balancing
    the output of audio streams within an application. Unless you are
    writing an application to control user settings, this API should be
    used in preference to setStreamVolume(int, int, int) which sets the
    volume of ALL streams of a particular type. Note that the passed
    volume values are raw scalars. UI controls should be scaled
    logarithmically.

    Parameters

    leftVolume left volume scalar

    rightVolume right volume scalar
