Audio Description selection glitche on firestick

Hi,

I'm totally blind and use audio description wherever possible. I love this feature and it's why I use DIrect TV, but in the last update of the Direct TV software something happened. When I go to the audio/CC menu the firestick doesn't say which audio is selected. It used to say alternate audio when selecting audio description, once selected the audio description is turned on and works, but now the firestick says the time literally every minute. Can you fix this please? I love your product and how user friendly it is for the blind, and just love the audio description feature. Thank you in advance.

Thank you so much for your prompt reply. I really hope this is fixed with the next upgrade. I'm not sure how many  totally blind people you have using Direct TV on the firestick, but I wanted to let you know. Have a great day.
