Maybe a little bit easier:

Set a focusChangedListener on your edit text and then just hide the keyboard if you don't have focus.

yourEditText.setOnFocusChangeListener(new OnFocusChangeListener() {

    @Override
    public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
        if(!hasFocus){
            hideKeyboard();
        }               
    }
});

private void hideKeyboard() {
    InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager)context.getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
    imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(yourEditText.getWindowToken(), 0);
}
