Turn off audio descriptions for Netflix on Apple TV

When I began the new season of a show I was watching on Netflix, an audio description of the show suddenly started playing. I have searched high and low trying to figure out if it was AppleTV, Netflix, my remote (Harmony), or my TV (a Sharp Aquos) that suddenly decided I needed that feature. So far, no luck. Does anyone have a solution?

Incorrect, but thanks for playing. This is not a subtitles issue - this is an audible, audio description issue. I can't even find where I would turn such a thing on, and searching online about audio descriptions suggest that Netflix doesn't even offer such a feature. It seems like perhaps this is something Netflix is close to rolling out, but the Apple TV software can't reflect its availability yet, so these glitches are occurring. My issue doesn't occur every show I watch either; it's temperamental.
