Maybe you could think of create a custom dialog; it requires more work but it usually works for me ;) Create a new layout file for your dialog (say, your_dialog.xml):

Then, in your activity:

Dialog yourDialog = new Dialog(this);
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater)this.getSystemService(LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View layout = inflater.inflate(R.layout.your_dialog, (ViewGroup)findViewById(R.id.your_dialog_root_element));
yourDialog.setContentView(layout);

Thus, you can operate on your element as follows:

Button yourDialogButton = (Button)layout.findViewById(R.id.your_dialog_button);
SeekBar yourDialogSeekBar = (SeekBar)layout.findViewById(R.id.your_dialog_seekbar);
// ...

and so on, to set listeners for button and seekbar.

EDIT: The seekbar onchangelistener should be as follows:

OnSeekBarChangeListener yourSeekBarListener = new OnSeekBarChangeListener() {
    @Override
    public void onStopTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {
            //add code here
    }

    @Override
    public void onStartTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {
            //add code here
    }

    @Override
    public void onProgressChanged(SeekBar seekBark, int progress, boolean fromUser) {
            //add code here
    }
 };
 yourDialogSeekBar.setOnSeekBarChangeListener(yourSeekBarListener);
