To jump in here:
Touching the brake "disengages" the cruise control though it stays "on". I understand the disengagement is activated by the same switch on the brake pedal assembly that turns on the brake light went you press the pedal. If that switch is stuck it could keep telling the cruise to "disengage".

A simple test may be to have someone watch your braking lights on the rear of the car while you press and release the brake pedal.
