Resume playing VideoView from onResume

I have a VideoView and it is pause when I start an Email intent. When the email intent is done, I want the videoView to continue playing, however, it restarts from the beginning.

@Override
public void onPause() {
    Log.d(TAG, "onPause called");
    super.onPause();
    videoView.pause();
}
@Override
public void onResume() {
    super.onResume();
    Log.d(TAG, "onResume called");
    videoView.start();//resume() doesnt work
}

How can I get the videoView to resume from where it left off.
