Bug Description
I installed a fresh copy of Intrepid Ibex this morning on my Eee PC 900. When I shutdown Ubuntu, the laptop won't turn off. I have a black screen, and the Power light is on. I must hold the power button 5 seconds to turn it off.

Make sure the module is properly removed when the system goes down by adding it to the halt shutdown script.
Add modprobe -r snd-hda-intel to your /etc/init.d/halt file should workaround this issue. Place it just within the stop function as seen in the example below:
do_stop () {
modprobe -r snd-hda-intel
if [ "$INITHALT" = "" ]
....
