don't know if this is really useful, but it shows that the problem is not OS 
dependent.

What I read there is that there is an issue about the nvidia card driver and 
the kernel.
So maybe if you just use a generic driver, it could solve your shutdown - 
poweroff problem, but you won#T use the nvidia driver, what could be but maybe 
is not an issue...
But it is just another guess!

...yes of course also other users have an similiar but maybe a slightly
different problem...and as we said before: it worked with 10.04 so it
will with 12.04!

Bug description:
  Shutting down the computer using the menue does not work always correct. It 
often does not complete turn off the computer. The power LED and the LED of the 
bluetooth unit remain on. Also the fan is still running and won't stop. 
  Shutting down the computer with "sudo shutdown -h now" using the terminal 
works fine.

  I am using a Dell Inspiron 1720.
