Narrative:
The captain briefed and we set up for the ILS prm (precision runway monitor) approach. We both selected the localizer in our active navigation radios. I don't know when he switched his frequency to the VOR after his brief. I verified I was 'tuned and identified.' approach gave us the final turn to intercept the localizer and cleared us for the ILS prm approach. After the clearance; I saw that his localizer frequency wasn't tuned correctly and I verbalized he needed to switch back to the localizer frequency. VOR/localizer was engaged prior to him switching to the localizer frequency. While he was selecting the localizer frequency; I was verifying it was tuned and I did not notice if he had re-engaged VOR/localizer. Approach switched us to tower. As I switched frequencies and selected the final monitor in VHF 2 we received a TA.I saw company turning onto their localizer for the left runway; then I saw we had blown through our course and verbalized he needed to correct back to the right. At the same time; final monitor asked if we were on frequency. I responded with an affirmative; and he cancelled our approach clearance and instructed us to descend to 3;000 feet and then said to report re-established on the localizer. The captain disengaged the autopilot; but was not descending. I verbalized 'descend now' and I engaged vertical speed at a 1;000 FPM descent to give him guidance. The final monitor asked; 'do you have the runway in sight?' we did. He cleared us for the approach; and I noticed the aircraft was turning left again. The captain didn't realize he had not re-engaged the autopilot. I told him 'you are still hand flying; turn right.' at that time; the final monitor queried us again. 'It looks like you are lined up for the wrong runway.' I confirmed we were correcting. He issued our landing clearance. After landing; we were cleared to taxi via the [taxiway] loop. Upon reaching taxiway and prior to my check-in with ground; we heard a stuck microphone on frequency. The captain continued to taxi while I attempted to contact ground. I contacted ramp to inform them of the stuck microphone on ground frequency. The ramp controller cleared us in and queried 'so you didn't contact ground?' I confirmed that we hadn't because of the stuck microphone. We taxied in and parked.

Title: B737-700 flight crew reported their aircraft overshot approach into a TA with parallel traffic. Also; First Officer reported a stuck MIC on Ground Control and was unable to make contact.
