Unlike an animation which can "hold" a dependency property at a specified value once the animation ends, a DataTrigger sets the target property and then is done until the source property changes.
In other words, in your example if you put some text in the text box, then check the box, the text will be cleared. But then if you start typing in the text box again, DataTrigger isn't going to do anything until the check box changes again. That's why when you uncheck and re-check the box, the text is cleared again.
So what you may want to do is in your DataTrigger, set the text box's IsReadOnly property to true. This will prevent you from typing in the box while the DataTrigger is active.
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding ElementName=Chk,Path=IsChecked}" Value="True">
<Setter Property="Text" Value="{x:Null}"/>
<Setter Property="IsReadOnly" Value="True"/>
</DataTrigger>
