hahaha! it's funny cos it's true
my alarm clock goes in 9 minute intervals, gets hard to predict the alarms so Ive taken to sleeping with my hand on the snooze button!

I can turn my alarm clock off in my sleep
without consciously knowing it's gone off at all.

It's an incredibly annoying ability.

Yep me too
I had to get rid of my voice activated alarm. If you shout at it, it stops.

I used to put it on the other side of the room and when it went off I'd sit upright, shout "FUCK" and it would stop. This often continued every 10 minutes for 2 hours until it gave up.

Alarm advice
I believe your brain gets used to the tone of the alarm and files it under "white noise" or the auto response is to turn it off.

Buy quite a few and rotate them after your brain decides the noise it makes is "white noise". Actually, a better idea is to use your mobile phone as an alarm and change the alarm tone each week.

Edit: Or get a dog who hates phones. The minute a phone rings, regardless of the tone, my dog howls :) (this holds true for police sirens, alarm sirens etc)
