Answer
There are two options for your trouble.  First, they do make an adapter harness that has a small circuit board attached that fools your radio into thinking the truck is not moving.  They usually cost around $20 on ebay.  Or, you can just short the wire going to the parking brake.  If you can figure out which wire is coming from the parking brake, you can cut the wire.  If it starts playing, then you know you did it right.  If it still is not playing, and doesn't play with the brake on either, then you know the wire needs power to trick the radio.  Just splice that wire into the switched power wire to power it and trick the radio into thinking the brake is always on.  Good Luck, Scott
