Default Automatic - Touchy PARK sensor

Is anyone else having this issue (no smartass comments from you Manual guys...please):

I put the car in P, turn the car off and then get out...the radio stays on. The DIC tells me to put the car in P but visually, it's clearly there. I have to tap or push the shifter forward again to make sure the sensor that checks to see if the car is in P works.

I've not encountered that yet. Are you level or on an incline and is the parking break on?
