You need to add code to applicationWillResignActive: in your app delegate.

This question also has some discussion on this topic.

It's actually much better policy to sign up for UIApplicationWillResignActiveNotification.

NSNotificationCenter.defaultCenter().addObserverForName(UIApplicationWillResignActiveNotification, object: nil, queue: nil) { (notification:NSNotification) in
        self.pause()
    }

Otherwise you will need to get references to your UIApplicationMain, which is basically the wrong way to do things. This is what NSNotificationCenter was made for.
