Playing pandora through USB?

Good evening everyone. I can play pandora through sync via Bluetooth but on the radio screen it only displays the words Bluetooth. When I plug it into USB 2 the title and artist display but there is no sound available. Does anyone know how to get the sound to play through USB on iPhone in a sync enabled truck? Thanks for suggestions!

make sure your media volume is turned all the way up.

For Bluetooth audio, make sure your iPhone is paired. If paired, press the media botton on the steering wheel, when prompted say Bluetooth audio. USB requires the system to index all audio files before it will work and must be indexed each time it's used. It's easier to use the Aux input, than the USB when playing audio files from the iPhone or iPod; no indexing required.

Te reason he was asking about the USB was because it would show the titles of the songs etc. the aux port will not do that.
