Comparing the Italian and Hungarian translations of Rhythmbox gives
these ideas:

msgid "%s (Paused)"
msgstr "%s (leállítva)"

msgid "Pause"
msgstr "Szünet"

I know nothing about Hungarian (except "egesegede" or something like
that), so perhaps the latter doesn't make any sense for a VM.  In that
case, "Pause" is definitely meant to be the same you had on remote
controls (and still have actually), and "Pillanatállj" sounds like a
good choice.

Anything that is the same as the translation of "Suspend" in the
shell/panel UI is wrong (again, gnome-shell.mo suggests that's
"Felfüggesztés").
