what do you mean by "switch inside the glove box"?

There is a switch inside the glove box which prevents the trunk from opening when you press the dash-button. It serves as a "valet" feature to lock out the trunk, and then you can lock the glovebox with your key. When you open up the glove box, look on the left side - the switch should be there.

A security switch inside the glove box (inaccessible with the valet key) deactivates the lower-dash trunk release button.
