Transitioning to a previous activity via the Back hard-key should be handled by Android for you (unless you are capturing the Back key event yourself, which does not sound like what you are doing because onPause() of your second activity is getting called). The only way I have screwed this up is when I had errors in my Activity callbacks that prevented the activity from running, as mentioned by Sundog. Have you checked the logs (adb logcat or DDMS) for any exceptions thrown when you transition from your second activity to your first? What exactly happens when you hit the Back button from your second activity? What do you see on the screen when you press the Back button?
