What do you mean by the Audio Description is on each time you change volume? Is the TV announcing the volume level? If so that will be a settting on the TV itself rather than Sky.

No.  None of the answers provided turns audio description off.  It only appears on certain programmes, both on itvX

The answers above don't relate to ITVX.

 

ITV says

 

Audio description (AD)

Audio description works on our mobile apps, Amazon Fire, Apple TV, Samsung TVs, Virgin Media, Chromecast, Sky Q, Sky Glass and Freesat. We're working on adding this feature for browsers and the remaining TV platforms.

You switch AD on and off by clicking on the AD button within the video player window (after any adverts have finished).
