It sounds like the ND filter is too dark and so the camera is cranking up the ISO to compensate.

Perhaps go for a lighter ND filter, or even a graduated ND filter if it’s a blown out sky your trying to control the exposure on.
 
Adjusting the white balance will have no impact on the exposure.

What ISO are your shooting at?
 
Try the solar pro app. Turn it on it will check conditions a recommend the appropriate filter. Works great!

The most likely answer is that you are shooting at higher ISO values.Higher ISO = noise.
I also pick the right exposure in the settings, like sunny, cloudy etc.
That's not affecting exposure.
It's your white balance setting.
White balance is adjusting the camera for shooting with light sources of different colour values.

Sounds like you need to learn some basic photographic principles.
There's no shortage of online help.
