In my basement if I don't leave a vent open my ducts does the same,so maybe you need some way for air to get under there.

The first thing that I would do is make sure your AC unit is in tip top shape. It may be leaking from inside the ducts and this is moisture that should be picked up by the evaporator.





I doubt the dry wall temp is below the dew point, but insulating may help.
